Fire Strategy Consultancy
Fire strategy consultancy for means of escape, compartmentation, active fire systems, smoke control, fire-fighting access and coordinated life-safety design in Turkey.
A fire strategy defines how a building is intended to achieve its fire-safety objectives. It should explain the logic behind the design, not simply list equipment.
FK SOLUTION develops or reviews fire strategies for new and existing projects by coordinating means of escape, fire compartments, structural fire performance, sprinkler and fire-water systems, detection, smoke control, fire-fighting access and operational considerations.
For complex projects, the fire strategy also identifies where prescriptive code compliance is sufficient and where additional engineering analysis, CFD, evacuation assessment or authority discussion may be required.

When should the fire strategy be prepared?
Ideally during concept design, before key architectural decisions become difficult or expensive to change.
Is a fire strategy only for large buildings?
No. The level of detail should be proportional to complexity and risk, but even smaller projects benefit from a clear coordinated design basis.
Can a fire strategy justify an alternative design?
Where permitted, performance-based analysis can support alternative solutions, but acceptance depends on the applicable regulatory framework and authority review.
