Fire Engineering

 

Fire engineering is a specialist discipline within our Mechanical & Electrical Engineering group, primarily focussed on life safety in buildings, although property protection, contents protection and business continuity protection can be additional drivers.

While the Acceptable Solution C/AS1 can provide a deemed to comply solution to the performance requirements of Clauses C2, C3 & C4 of the New Zealand Building Regulations, a more economical, simpler or more convenient solution can often be determined using performance based design.  Opus provides the complete range of fire engineering services from Acceptable Solution to performance based design across a wide range of commercial, institutional, residential, healthcare, assembly and industrial buildings.

Britomart Transportation Centre, Auckland, New Zealand

This facility provides a rare combination of an underground rail station serving large numbers of people served by diesel engine powered trains.  Opus was responsible for the fire protection design of all services within the Station and its approach tunnel, the main public entry via the refurbished Chief Post Office and the underground concourse below the C.P.O..  Systems include a multi-zone foam deluge system protecting the tracks, a fibre optic heat detection system and a very substantial smoke control system throughout the Station and tunnel.
