This project required a fully integrated approach. Planate combined fire protection engineering with advanced mechanical design. The goal was clear: meet critical safety and operational requirements. Compliance with life safety standards remained a top priority throughout the project.
Expert Site Assessment
To begin, Planate Fire Protection Engineer Joseph Decker, P.E. performed an on-site assessment. He documented existing conditions using measurements and photographs. This approach provided clear insight into system limitations and design challenges.
After the site visit, Planate prepared a detailed findings report. This report established the project’s basis of design. It also guided all engineering decisions that followed.
Collaborative, Multidisciplinary Execution
Next, Planate leveraged its global workforce. Engineers from North America and Southeast Asia worked together. Each team contributed specialized technical expertise.
In addition, Planate partnered with CaptiveAire Commercial Ventilation Technologies. This collaboration ensured accurate equipment selection and system specifications.
Because of existing facility conditions, the project required extensive mechanical design. Therefore, the team developed detailed mechanical plans. Fire protection designs were also tailored to operational and safety needs.
On-Time Delivery and Client Confidence
Throughout the project, Planate maintained clear communication with KBR. This ensured alignment at every phase. As a result, the team delivered the 100% design ahead of schedule.
The client expressed full satisfaction with the outcome. Following completion, the client requested a proposal. Planate was asked to provide a Qualified Fire Protection Engineer for construction oversight.
Global Expertise in Fire Protection Engineering
Overall, this project highlights Planate’s strength in fire protection and mechanical design. It also demonstrates our ability to perform in complex environments. Notably, our Southeast Asia office played a key role.
