Clearly some organizations
may not wish to develop an in-house structural fire engineering
facility. However the benefits offered by Vulcan can still be realized
by taking advantage of the specialist consulting service offered
by Vulcan solutions. This service will be tailored to specific needs,
and might include conceptual design to achieve optimum solutions,
detailed analysis using Vulcan, interpretation of results, preparation
of formal reports, and presentation to third parties such as regulatory
authorities.
The advantage of this approach
is that the full benefits of advanced structural fire engineering
can be realized without the need to commit resources to establishing
a specialist facility in-house.
