The Phoenix-Mesa Airport Authority engaged Fisher Engineering, Inc. (FEI) to provide fire protection consulting and engineering services for a fire protection upgrade of Hangar 1084.
Hangar 1084 is a 60,000-square foot commercial aircraft hangar. In 1961, a foam-deluge fire protection sprinkler system was installed throughout the hangar. In 1991, the system was converted to a closed-head foam system.
For this project, FEI evaluated the existing fire protection system and performed design services associated with the replacement of the system risers, partial replacement of the sprinkler system, and replacement of the associated fire detection and fire alarm system. Once FEI had completed assessment and design services, the airport authority then engaged FEI to perform construction administration services, including bid review, shop drawing review, responding to requests for information, construction progress surveys, and acceptance testing.

At over 65 locations throughout the eastern United States, Fisher Engineering, Inc. designed modifications to air traffic control towers’ (ATCT) fire and life safety systems in order to comply with new OSHA standards and FAA criteria. The major requirements of this task order included:
Fisher Engineering, Inc. (FEI) was engaged by Freescale Semiconductor, Inc. to provide fire protection engineering and design services for the replacement of the sprinkler system at Freescale Semiconductor’s Building E Fab Level. Freescale Semiconductor is a global provider of secure, embedded processing systems.
When Internap Corporation, a leading provider of colocation services, decided to expand its existing Atlanta data center, the company engaged KBD Group to provide architecture and engineering services for the project. In turn, KBD asked Fisher Engineering, Inc. (FEI) to perform fire protection engineering and life safety design, as well as construction period services, as part of the design team.
To create a new Australia–Canada–United Kingdom Reprogramming Laboratory (ACURL), the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Mobile District, elected to construct an addition and alteration to Building 614 at Eglin Air Force Base, Florida. The ACURL provides F-35 aircraft with customized mission data for partner nations of the United States.
Opened in 1931, Randolph Air Force Base (AFB) is a United States Air Force base located in Schertz, Texas. In 2009, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Fort Worth District, began renovating historic Building 499 at Randolph AFB. The $73+ million project renovated, furnished, and outfitted 200,000 square feet of office space and incorporated features that boost energy efficiency and improve the working environment for employees. The improvements meet LEED Silver criteria.
