In the case that the height of a building and/or travel distances exceed statutory requirements of building regulations, smoke ventilation of common escape routes and associated areas may be necessary. This is predominantly to aid both means of escape and also to facilitate fire fighting operations of the Fire & Rescue Service.

In designing a building, the incorporation of a smoke control system can significantly improve life safety protection. Available in numerous guises, and ranging widely in complexity, their basic objectives are usually the same.

Additionally, by combining ventilation with detection and suppression (fire sprinklers) by means of appropriate fire engineering, Adima can further assist your project in the way of trade off’s, design freedoms and cost savings.
