UEDC strive to provide design and consulting that result in effective, budget-minded defenses against the threat of fire for life, property, and operations.

Our Fire Protection Engineers use alternative methods to address smoke control design, egress requirements, fire-rating requirements (structural, wall/floor assemblies) as well as other tools to assess the impact on the space and its occupants.

Our professionals work closely with code-enforcing authorities to reach agreed upon resolutions for life safety. Performance-based design allows the design team to achieve flexibility, unique solutions, and potentially reduce costs all without compromising safety.
