FLS Design Review and Approval ensures that fire and life safety systems are properly engineered, documented, and certified in alignment with Abu Dhabi Civil Defense regulations.
FLS Design Review and Approval ensures that fire alarm, firefighting, smoke control, and evacuation systems are properly engineered and documented in accordance with Abu Dhabi Civil Defense codes. Through detailed drawing evaluations and coordinated submissions, HoEs validate technical compliance and secure regulatory clearance for building permits and operational licensing.
Integrated Protection Across Disciplines
By coordinating architectural, mechanical, and electrical systems, the FLS review guarantees seamless integration of passive and active fire protection throughout the building.
Code-Compliant Safety from the Start
Early review ensures that fire alarms, sprinklers, and evacuation systems are designed in full alignment with Abu Dhabi Civil Defense regulations—reducing costly redesigns and approval delays.
Faster Civil Defense Approvals
A well-prepared FLS submission by a certified House of Expertise streamlines the approval process, helping projects move efficiently toward BCC and occupancy.
Fire Engineering Approach
FLS Design Review: Ensuring Code-Compliant Fire Protection from Drawings to Civil Defense Approval.
HoEs assess architectural and MEP drawings to ensure fire alarms, sprinklers, smoke control, and emergency lighting systems are designed according to Abu Dhabi Civil Defense codes and international standards.
They prepare detailed fire strategy reports that outline passive and active safety measures, evacuation plans, and system integration—ensuring full regulatory compliance before submission.
HoEs submit the FLS design package to Civil Defense via the Smart Hub portal, respond to technical comments, and coordinate approvals to support timely project progression and BCC issuance.
