FIRE SAFETY SERVICES
FIRE SAFETY SERVICES
Fire in any occupancy has potential to cause severe damages to both life and property. Fire is one of the major cause of losses in industries.
Fire Protection Systems are very important part of safety in any operating plant as it provides a reasonable degree of protection to expensive equipment, property, documents, life and inventory during a fire event. Fire Safety must have to be in place to avoid major loss during uneven circumstances.
Fire Safety Audit is found to be the effective tool for assessing fire safety standards of occupancy. It helps the owners to identify the areas for improvement and evolve an action plan, in addition to emergency preparedness and mock drills. The calculation of the fire load is the basis for determining the classification of the occupancies for the fire grading of buildings as well as determining the required resources for fire fighting. IQMS provides a Comprehensive Fire Safety Services which helps you identify fire hazards and risks in your premises. You can then decide whether any risks identified are acceptable or whether you need to reduce or control them.

Design Of Fire Network
Design Of Fire Network
The Fire protection system will basically consist of the Yard Hydrant system, Fire pump house, Fire Water Storage Tank, Fire Hose Reel System, and Automatic Sprinkler System.
We conduct Fire Gap Assessment and Designing of Entire Fire System (i.e. Hydrant Network and a sprinkler system) as per the TAC Guideline, Indian Standards, NFPA standards, NBC-2016, and Local CFO requirements.
Our Deliverables include:
- Gap assessment report
- Type of Fire Protection system requirement (fire pumps, hydrant and Fire mains, sprinkler, pump required, etc.)
- Water demand calculations
- Assessment of the types & nos. of Fire Extinguishers to be provided
- Pressure Drop Calculation / Hydraulic Calculation
- GA drawing of the fire pump house
- Concept layout of firewater network, Isometric drawings of hydrant network
- Concept layouts of subsystems such as spray system, sprinkler system, etc.
- Design Philosophy & Tender technical specifications
- Tentative BOQ
Fire Adequacy Survey
Fire Adequacy Survey
Fire Adequacy Study is carried out to identify the Gaps in the existing fire fighting facilities and to Recommend the actual requirement of fire fighting facilities. It helps to ensure that the site is fitted with correct fire safety installations as suggested by the fire safety standards & guidelines and that these fire safety installations are properly maintained in an operational condition.
The survey includes checks like…
- Availability and adequacy of fire safety systems and installations
- Operational test of fire safety installations.
- Records of maintenance of fire safety installations
- Evacuation instructions were given to employees and residents
- Structural aspects of the building
After a fire safety survey, a report is prepared where gaps are noted down and specific recommendations are given to correct the same.
Fire Safety Audit
Fire Safety Audit
Fire Safety Audit is an integral & essential part of loss prevention strategy.We conduct Fire Safety Audits for various Industries as per National Building Code of India, 2005, Indian Standards and other relevant safety standards to identify all fire hazards & then suggesting corrective & preventive actions. We also help industries in preparing the emergency plans for fire safety and conducting mock drills.
Purpose
- To identify the fire related gaps or lacuna in the system w.r.t. standards, guidelines, procedure, etc.
- Suggesting scope of improvement in terms of specific Do’ables.
- Giving specific recommendations to improve the effectiveness of existing procedures, practices, and safety management system to prevent fire incidents as well as to mitigate fire emergencies.
Fire Load Calculation
Fire Load Calculation
Fire Load Calculation is an important factor in establishing the basis for the assessment of the fire risk pertaining to any Industries.
It indicates the quantity of heat liberated per unit area when a respective site area and its contents are completely burnt. We conduct Fire Load Calculation as per NFPA 557 as well as GFR 66A.
The calculation of the fire load is the basis to know the fire load of individual area & total fire load of a company and also for determining the classification of the occupancies as well as determining the resources required for fire fighting.
OUR METHODOLOGY
UNDERSTAND
Our first step is to understand the SOW clearly. What is the purpose & primary goal of the client by conducting respective assignment?
PREREQUISITE
It’s one of the most crucial stage in any project. Before Site-Visit, required documents are required being collected from client for smooth execution of projects.
SITE-VISIT
Along with site visit, pre & post-meetings are conducted at site to justify every single aspect of the project execution.
DRAFT REPORT
Draft report is prepared & submitted to client along with our observations & recommendations for their review.
FINAL REPORT
Report is finalized after incorporating the client comments (if any) and submitted to client in soft & hard copies.
