By law, a construction project must submit fire protection documents.  But you don’t like the typical, standardized, “bland” plans?  We at hhpberlin have the right solution for you.  We will prepare individual fire protection documents tailored to your needs, without pulling a boring, standard plan from our drawer.

All of the details will be carefully coordinated with you and with the authorities.  We will work together with you in defining where these documents are to be displayed in the building.  In this regard, you will profit from our many years of experience, but also from our relationship of trust with the authorities.  

We can guarantee a prompt and smooth handling, and we will be able to meet any special requirements that you may have.  To cite but one example, we will be happy to work your corporate design into this documentation.

With the fire department plans, the egress and evacuation plans as well as the emergency response plans, we enable the fire department to evacuate people and fight the fire, and we also direct the actions of those present in the building.  Everyone will be aware of what to do in case of a fire, and all that in keeping with your aesthetic requirements.

You can’t just wait for modern fire protection solutions to fall down from the heavens.

That is why we continually make efforts to develop our knowledge further and to discover new opportunities.  It is not following whatever is currently developing, it is setting new trends that is at the heart of our success.

Where performance-based methods are concerned, this obviously means that we use the most modern computing methods and have powerful computer clusters in place.  It also means that we do our research ourselves and proactively pursue our goals.  As an added benefit, this makes our programs more efficient and ensures that they can be adjusted to fit to your requirements and to any project’s specific pre-requisites.

You have a vision. 
There’s an unconventional building to be constructed.  Not the same old, same old.  A structure that isn’t oriented by traditional standards, but one that sets new trends.

If that is the case, then you as the builder-owner or as the architect will need to have a certain degree of security.  Because only then will you be able to persuade the construction supervisory authority of your innovative ideas.  And this is where we at hhpberlin come into play.  We join forces with you in planning and realizing your architectural dreams.

By providing an integral and comprehensive fire protection and life safety concept, we make sure that first-class architecture can be realized with the best possible safety standards.

That will work out only if we are involved early on in the project.  And if we work together with you, as your partners, to develop a customized fire protection and life safety concept.  

What does that mean exactly? 
We avoid incurring unnecessary costs, we combine aspects of precautionary fire protection with structural, mechanical and organizational aspects and go down new paths with our individual, bespoke solutions. 

To obtain them, we use modern, scientifically founded simulations to ensure our work is not only based on legal texts that are sometimes outdated.  In this way, we can provide our clients with solutions that more often than not are significantly more cost-effective than the ones usually applied.  And these solutions will set new standards with the construction supervisory authority.  The reason?  Simple: they trust our expertise.

You’re done with the planning and the permit has been granted.  Now the task is to correctly implement the planned measures in constructing the building. 

We will be happy to assist you in this phase as well.  We will supervise the proper implementation of the planning we developed together.  Are the components specified being installed correctly, and at the right location?  Has the work been done in compliance with quality requirements?  Is the budget being adhered to?  Are the contractors completing their work on time?  Is the project progressing according to schedule? 

We will be happy to take care of all of these issues for you.  We are the interface for all crafts where complex issues of fire protection and life safety transcend several technical fields.  As a matter of course, we will continue to closely cooperate with you -- the architects, builder-owners and planners.

Because we are very closely tied in to the actual construction of the fire protection measures, we are able to recognize flaws early on, thus preventing complicated repairs needing to be done after something has gone wrong.  As a result, the authorities will accept your functional and safe building as being in compliance with statutory requirements, and will do so promptly and without complications.

We’ve piqued your interest, and you would like to learn more about fire protection and life safety?  You would like to gain in-depth insights into the subject, while broadening your knowledge of the complex material?

We will be happy to visit you at your offices to briefly immerse you, the architects, builder-owners and officials, in the most important aspects of fire protection and life safety for your project, tailoring our briefing to your individual requirements.  

Our presentations and seminars are geared to the practical application of the knowledge they intend to impart. 

We address various aspects such as fire protection measures when constructing in existing structures, fire protection in the construction process, the new Berlin Building Ordinance or methods of heat resistance testing.

Our speakers are selected fire protection engineers who have many years of experience and have worked on a wide variety of complex projects.  They will be happy to share their rich knowledge, providing you with effective instructions and pointers for your daily work.

We will be happy to come see you!  Please feel free to contact us to plan your fire protection seminar.
