: TECHNIQUE :
 

When dealing with the issues of fire protection it is often necessary to rely upon specialists in other areas to properly tackle the job. There are two ways in which the fire protection industry solves problems:

Code Solution - Find a situation in the codes that matches the general conditions of your problem and utilize their solutions.

Real Solution - Find a situation in the codes that matches the general conditions of your problem and add in the 'real world' conditions that exist in your situation to come up with a solution.

At JMW & Associates we consider the code books a valuable resource tool, however we do not consider them the ultimate solution. Codes are written as a minimum standard for a general class of conditions. As you may imagine, it is impossible to capture all the 'real world' conditions that exist out in the field in a set of books. This is why we prefer the Real Solution in approaching fire protection.
