FDC Brandveiligheid is an Eeklo practice covering fire advice and fire audits, the follow-up of fire prevention reports issued by the competent fire service, and the review of designs against fire legislation for environmental permit applications. Its study and calculation work weighs fire resistance, evacuation times and the effectiveness of suppression and detection systems, and it prepares the full prevention dossier — fire risk analysis, evacuation plans, internal emergency plan, internal intervention dossier and the annual checks on first-intervention equipment. Its outputs are an aid to the design team’s and the employer’s professional judgement.
