Bernard Adkonis, director of research and development from the Smoke Extraction and Roof Lighting Department of MERCOR S.A., presents how MERCOR's advanced technological solutions, confirmed by the EPD declaration, support the development of ecological and energy-saving modern construction investments.
CFD simulation and smoke removal in underground garages
The basis for performing CFD simulations is the analysis of the worst fire development scenarios, representative of the given space. To prepare them correctly, not only theoretical knowledge is needed, but also solid practical foundations. How to properly perform CFD simulations? Joanna Marzec, designer in the Fire Ventilation Systems Department of MERCOR S.A. shares his knowledge and experience.
Transforming Theory into Practice at mcr EDU in Kraków
Once again, Mercor experts shared their practical knowledge in the field of fire ventilation as part of the mcr EDU series. The training session took place at the Krowodrza Hotel in Kraków and, as always, attracted architects, designers, fire protection appraisers, and industry experts.
How to choose a fire ventilation system?
Smoke removal from the garages can be achieved in two ways: through ducted smoke removal ventilation or through jet smoke removal ventilation. How do they differ and which one to choose in the case of underground garages?
How to design a gravity smoke removal installation?
Ewa Karczewska, Coordinator of the Design Department in the Natural smoke exhausting Division, talks about how to design the gravity smoke removal installation not to face problems, both during post-construction commissioning and a potential fire, as well as tips on where to get the needed knowledge.
MERCOR provides a custom-made technical solution
Most solutions for passive fire protection are based on individual technical solutions, designed according to the facility needs. In what cases it is necessary and how it is created, explains Martyna Kostrzewa, research and development manager in the Building Structures Security Department of MERCOR S.A.
