Hotels & Hospitality

Today’s hotels and hospitality developments are destinations in their own right, combining accommodation, leisure, dining and entertainment experiences within sophisticated, multi-use environments.

  • Large assembly areas and egress
  • Atrium and smoke control design
  • Mixed use and sharing of egress routes
  • Phased evacuation
  • Materials of construction
  • Fire safety management and maintenance of fire engineering strategy intent
  • Development and implementation of Brand Standards, and quality assurance throughout construction and handover
