Fire Alarm Design Sample
iOS Universel / Education
Fire Alarm Design Sample is a professional-grade engineering reference app built for fire alarm system designers, engineers of record, AHJ inspectors, fire protection consultants, and engineering students who want to understand how a complete, code-compliant fire alarm system is designed from the ground up.
The app is structured as a step-by-step How-To Guide built around a fully populated sample project — the Skyline Tower Complex, a 45-story mixed-use high-rise. Every one of the 17 engineering design phases is pre-built with detailed design content, real engineering drawings, documentation checklists, and deliverables — giving you a complete professional reference to guide your own designs.
WHAT IS INCLUDED:
17 Engineering Design Phases
Every phase of the fire alarm design lifecycle is covered in full detail — from project initiation and code analysis through system architecture, detection design, notification design, suppression integration, smoke control, emergency communications, mass notification, FACP programming, cause and effect matrix development, BMS integration, factory acceptance testing, commissioning, turnover documentation, and long-term maintenance planning.
44 Engineering Drawings
The gallery includes 44 annotated engineering drawings covering system architecture, network riser diagrams, FACP topology, floor detection plans, NAC circuit diagrams, voice evacuation layouts, suppression interface diagrams, smoke control matrices, SLC loop diagrams, emergency power diagrams, BMS integration drawings, cause and effect matrices, commissioning workflows, as-built cable schedules, and more.
Comprehensive Deliverables Register
Each phase includes a complete list of engineering deliverables — reports, calculations, specifications, shop drawing reviews, test plans, and submittals — so you always know what needs to be produced and when.
Engineering Standards Coverage
Content is aligned with NFPA 72 (National Fire Alarm and Signaling Code), NFPA 101 (Life Safety Code), NFPA 92 (Smoke Control Systems), IBC 2021, and ADA/ANSI A117.1 accessibility requirements.
