At MEP Engineering USA, our licensed fire protection engineers specialize in designing integrated fire protection systems that protect occupants, assets, and building infrastructure. We focus on practical, maintainable solutions that balance life safety requirements with architectural vision, budget constraints, and MEP coordination needs.
Our expertise spans wet and dry fire suppression systems, clean agent suppression for mission-critical spaces, fire detection and notification, smoke control, and egress coordination. Every project receives detailed hydraulic calculations, equipment selection, and 3D BIM coordination for construction efficiency.
NFPA & Code Specialists: Our designs are strictly governed by NFPA 13, 14, 20, and 72, as well as International Building and Fire Codes (IBC/IFC).
Seamless MEP Integration: We coordinate fire protection with HVAC (for smoke dampers) and Electrical (for alarm power and elevator recall) to ensure a unified safety network.
BIM Coordination: We use Revit to model piping and head placement in 3D, preventing clashes with ductwork and lighting during construction.
Hazard Assessment: We don’t just “apply a code”—we analyze your specific fuel loads and building use to provide the most cost-effective and appropriate level of protection.
