Fire Engineering
Fire engineering is an uncommon specialty in Ottawa. We do it in-house, and we do it well.
CEL is among the few firms in Ottawa qualified to provide fire engineering. We assess hazards and risks, design detection, suppression and control systems, and investigate fires after the fact so the lessons are applied going forward.
Our Senior Fire Engineer holds a Master's in Fire Protection Engineering and brings more than 20 years of experience applying fire and building codes to complex problems.
What we do
Fire hazard assessment
Materials, fire-resistance ratings and estimates of fire spread through a building.
Fire detection design
Heat and smoke detection appropriate to risk.
Fire suppression design
Water-based suppression and systems that limit spread and severity.
Fire control systems
Door closers, dampers, fire separations and firewalls.
Post-fire investigation
How a fire started, how and where it spread, and what to change.
