Did you catch ByDesign TV's coverage of Overland Park Fire Station 41 in their latest episode? FSC is proud to have provided MEP and fire protection engineering for the entire station. Led by SFS Architecture, this building is thoughtfully designed for first responder health, safety, and efficiency. We're so pleased to see it recognized on video!

In addition to showcasing the overall design we helped bring to life, this episode spotlights other features FSC contributed, such as the cord reels, transition-zone decontamination sinks, photovoltaic solar electric panels, and the kitchen hood’s fire suppression.

Last week, FSC’s Jerry Bachar was accompanied by members of the Des Moines Fire Department during a site visit of the DSM’s new Phase 1A/1BW terminal. During this visit, Jerry gave members of their department a behind-the-scenes walkthrough of the building’s fire protection systems FSC designed.

This led to a great conversation about fire department tactical response, engagement protocols with airport security during a fire emergency, and how building evacuations could be handled. These items were each addressed early in design through close coordination with Fire Marshall Jeremy Eekhoff.

As the new terminal’s completion is finally on the horizon, FSC is honored to have been a part of this challenging project on such a strong team, with HNTB and BNIM leading the design, and WTJV leading construction.

Throughout this project, the team has forged a great working relationship with the Des Moines Fire Department. We’ve appreciated the professionalism they’ve shown every step of the way.

Another exciting FSC project is well on its way to becoming a reality! 🌟 📢 On a team with SixTwentyOne, FSC has been providing MEP engineering, fire protection engineering, code consulting, and accessibility consulting for a new apartment community for people with developmental disabilities.

This is the first ever ground-up development for Friends of JCDS (Johnson County Developmental Supports), featuring 17 affordable apartments, office space, and ground-floor retail for their Emerging Artists Program.

Projects like these dedicated to worthy causes in our own community are especially meaningful to us. FSC is proud to be a part of this project and the team making it happen!

We're pleased to share that Fire Protection Specialist Chuck Thacker has been appointed to the NFPA Technical Committee on Aviation Facilities (AIS-AAA), where he will be representing FSC. This prestigious committee is responsible for guiding the development of NFPA 409, 415, and 423, which outline requirements for protecting life and property within aircraft hangars, terminals, and engine test facilities.

Chuck brings a robust combination of credentials to this role: decades of experience as a Fire Marshal and Fire Chief, certification as a Certified Building Official, and deep expertise in fire protection engineering, fire risk analysis, and building compliance.

Having worked within the fire service and on the code enforcement side of fire protection, he has a first-hand understanding of how standards shape real-world outcomes. It is through his work at FSC on many aviation projects that this breadth of experience was recognized by NFPA on a national level.

Chuck’s participation in this committee will shape standards that govern some of the most complex and high-stakes facilities in fire protection. His involvement speaks to his dedication to fire protection, safety standards, and ultimately, protecting people and property.

Please join us in congratulating Chuck on this significant achievement! 👏 👏
