As noted at the website of the Society of Fire Protection Engineers: Fire protection engineers use science and technology to protect people, property and businesses from destructive fires. They analyze how buildings are used, how fires start, how fires grow, and how fire and smoke affects people, buildings and property. Fire protection engineers use the latest technologies to:

Design systems that

control fires, alert people to danger and provide means for escape;

Evaluate buildings to pinpoint the risks of fires and the means to prevent them;

Conduct fire safety research on consumer products and construction materials;

Investigate fires to discover how fire spreads, why protective measures failed, and how those measures could have been designed more effectively. Fire protection engineers work with architects and other engineers, state and local building officials and local fire departments to build and maintain fire safe communities. They make recommendations for cost effective fire protection solutions to ensure that the structure is adequately protected, along with the property and occupants contained within.
