1 630 Fitzwatertown Road Suite A1 Willow Grove, PA Phone: Fax: LaSalle Engineering, LLC LaSalle Engineering, LLC is a consulting engineering firm specializing in fire protection and life safety engineering, code consulting, litigation support, and construction administration. Founded in June, 2004, the firm s performance philosophy is based on the following principles: Understanding our clients problems, goals, and expectations. Developing solutions that achieve these goals in a costeffective way. Creating an atmosphere of cooperation and respect with all team members. Focusing on practicality, maintainability, and reliability of systems and solutions. Recognizing the unique roles individuals play in fire and life safety solutions. Integrating engineering principles into a largely code-driven field of practice. Although these principles may seem obvious, their successful implementation requires technical excellence, effective communication, respect for all viewpoints, and a desire to create a safer community. LaSalle Engineering, LLC advocates a holistic approach to building fire safety based on engineering and systems-oriented principles. We believe in solving fire protection problems through the application of state-of-the-art fire engineering knowledge and technologies, education, and with a cooperative approach that recognizes the unique contributions of all stakeholders. We recognize that code compliance is important, but codes address neither the specific needs of building owners nor unique building designs. Appropriate, cost-effective building fire safety depends on an understanding of goals, the reliability and maintainability of the systems, and the roles of people in fire safety practice. LaSalle Engineering s areas of expertise include: Fire Safety Strategic Planning Code Consulting Fire Suppression Systems Analysis & Design Fire Hazard Assessment/ Risk Management Fire Alarm Systems Analysis & Design Construction Administration Smoke Control System Analysis & Design Hydraulic Modeling & Water Supply Analysis Life Safety Analysis & Design Project Management Fire Investigation Litigation Support Fire Modeling Fire Safety Inspections/ Audits

He was responsible for development of all code compliance strategies, City of Philadelphia approvals, and Fire Protection, Alarm, and Life Safety design. He coordinated the effort to obtain 30 variances from the City. MODELING IN FIRE PROTECTION ENGINEERING: LaSalle Engineering is a proponent of the use of state-of-the-art calculation methods and modeling techniques in solving both common and unique fire safety problems. Models used in Fire Protection Engineering practice run the gamut from hydraulic analysis software for sprinkler systems and underground piping networks to Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software used to model fire and smoke spread in multi-compartment structures. Hydraulic modeling is an example of a commonly used technique to help solve routine hydraulics problems. These software packages are based on well established hydraulic calculation methods. Fire modeling can include use of hand calculations, single application spreadsheet or software routines, and more complex zone, field, and egress model software. Our philosophy is that these
6 Page 6 of 8 engineering tools must be used by experienced engineers with special attention to the use of the correct model for the problem, model input parameters, model limitations, model uncertainty and factors of safety. Models are a tool, not a substitute for engineering judgment, in solving fire protection problems LaSalle Engineering has experience in the use of a range of models for analysis, design, and fire investigation purposes. A partial list includes: Detact-QS THE Hydraulic Program Detact-T 2 Proprietary Spreadsheet Programs for: ASET o Fire Alarm Audibility Fire Dynamics Simulator o Radiant Heat Exposure FASTLite o Smoke Filling CFAST o Timed Egress LITIGATION SUPPORT: Mr. LaSalle has experience in litigation support and fire modeling in support of case development. Mr. LaSalle has been deposed as an expert witness in Florida and Pennsylvania, and has supported litigation on behalf of plaintiffs and defendants. His areas of expertise and testimony include building and fire codes, systems design and failure analysis, human behavior in fire, fire spread, and systems response. While litigation support does not currently represent a significant portion of the firm s portfolio, it remains a service provided to our building owner clients and attorneys.
