Fire safety engineering plays a critical role in shaping how a building is designed, built and used. We work alongside you to develop tailored fire strategies that meet building regulations while supporting your layout, timelines, and design objectives.
We stay closely aligned with your vision from the start. Every project brings its own priorities – whether that’s preserving the design, simplifying the route to approval, or keeping things moving on site.
With decades of experience and long-standing relationships across the industry, we know how to develop innovative, practical fire engineering solutions that meet the brief and stand up to scrutiny. Our team brings deep technical knowledge, a grounded view of what works in the real world, and the flexibility to adapt to the needs of your design, your programme, and your budget.
We’re proud to be a trusted partner for architects, mechanical engineers and specialist clients, supporting well-considered designs and fire strategy reports that hold up in practice across London, Manchester and beyond. Got a project in mind? Talk to our fire engineers today.
We work across a wide range of sectors, from hospitality and healthcare to education, energy, public buildings and visitor attractions. Our team joins projects at different stages, from concept design and construction support all the way through to during occupation compliance checks. However complex the brief, we stay hands-on and adaptable to shape a pragmatic solution.
Our fire safety consultants go beyond prescriptive industry guidance, using sound technical knowledge to develop strategies that respond to real-world constraints such as restricted fire service access, complex layouts, or the need to preserve design intent. While protecting life is always the priority, we know clients are thinking long term. We help to safeguard business continuity in the event of a fire, protecting assets and keeping costs manageable, without holding up progress.
Our fire engineering consultancy covers planning advice, design-stage input, construction support and independent auditing, always shaped around the specific needs of the project. Depending on the brief, we can provide fire strategy drawings to support planning submissions, detailed fire strategy reports for Building Regulations approval, and on-site services such as compartmentation assessments and construction phase inspections. We aim to remove uncertainty from the process, giving your team the confidence to make informed decisions and protect the integrity of your design as it moves from concept to construction.
Our projects CDC have been working with the University on a number of difficult schemes, schemes where SKA Gold has been achieved or is being targeted. At all times CDC provided professional and considered advice, fully appreciating project timescales and collaboratively working with the wider project team
