BIM FIREPROOFING are a Specialist BIM Consultant highly knowledgeable in passive fire protection design.
What is Passive Fire Protection?
Passive fire protection consists of built-in fire safety measures designed to contain fires, slow their spread, and protect escape routes without active intervention (such as sprinklers).
Key PFP elements include:
-
Fire-resistant walls, floors, and ceilings
-
Fire doors and glazing systems
-
Intumescent coatings (for steel structures)
-
Non reactive coatings such as cementitious spray
-
Firestopping and penetration seals
-
Compartmentation and smoke barriers
What is BIM?
BIM (Building Information Modeling) is a digital process that creates and manages detailed 3D models of buildings, integrating data on design, construction, and maintenance to improve collaboration, efficiency, and decision-making throughout a building’s lifecycle.
BIM has transformed the way we design and construct buildings, enhancing our ability to develop effective fireproofing solutions from the outset.
At BIM Fireproofing, we provide high-quality passive fire protection BIM solutions, enabling you to integrate fire safety seamlessly into your design. This ensures compliance and allows all project stakeholders to collaborate efficiently.
Our Services
Why we established BIM Fireproofing
Over the years, we have witnessed a shifting legal landscape in fire safety, bringing new compliance challenges for industries, developers, and regulators.
Designing and installing passive fire protection in buildings requires early consideration in the design process. Unfortunately, this critical aspect is often overlooked or undervalued. When addressed too late, solutions may fail to meet compliance requirements, leading to costly revisions such as repositioning services or redesigning architectural finishes to prevent clashes and ensure full compartmentation.
This is why we established BIM Fireproofing - to integrate fire safety into the early stages of design development, ensuring compliance and efficiency from the outset.
How we offer
BIM Solutions
We leverage the latest BIM technology to seamlessly integrate our passive fire protection expertise with smart design tools.
This allows us to create an intuitive, prototype-like model of your project before construction begins. You’ll be able to visualise the layout and quality of passive fire protection elements, annotate drawings, and provide feedback throughout the process.
Our team is highly experienced in leading BIM software platforms, including Navisworks, MicroStation, Revit, and more.
