Fire Protection Engineering
Fire protection is engineering for the worst day. We design wet, dry, pre-action, and clean-agent suppression systems that protect occupants, assets, and operations, coordinated tightly with mechanical, structural, and architectural so the AHJ has no reason to send the drawings back.
Buildings equipped with automatic sprinklers begin extinguishing fire before firefighters arrive. Fully sprinklered buildings are safer, qualify for lower insurance premiums, and protect business continuity, when the system is engineered to the actual hazard, not a generic template.
Our Approach
How We Work
Every suppression design begins with the hazard: occupancy classification, commodity, storage height, and water supply. Hydraulic calculations are run against real flow-test data, and insurance carrier requirements (FM Global, IRI) are folded in from day one.
- Hydraulic calculations against actual flow-test data
- NFPA 13 / 14 / 20 / 30 / 409 design experience
- FM Global & insurance carrier compliance built in

Why Owners Choose KeRi
AHJ-Ready Documents
Drawings detailed and coordinated so plan examiners and field inspectors sign off without resubmission cycles.
Hazard-Matched Design
From high-piled storage to data halls to hangars, systems matched to the real hazard, not copied from the last job.
Insurance Compliance
FM Global and carrier requirements engineered in from the start, protecting both premiums and claims positions.
