Fire Protection Workflow System

Coordinate fire protection systems with design-aware workflows

Use ArchiLabs to coordinate sprinkler layouts, branch-line and main routing, risers, fire alarm devices, circuit maps, calculations, schedules, checks, exports, and as-built comparisons inside an end-to-end BIM/design workspace.

Workflow system

Built for repeatable work, not one-off prompts

Each workflow combines smart components, AI-assisted recipe generation, deterministic validation, sheet and annotation automation, and exports that fit the tools your team already uses.

Routing
Branch lines, mains, risers
Alarms
Circuits, zones, panels
Reports
Calcs, schedules, exports

Sprinkler layout and routing

Place and adjust sprinkler layouts while handling branch-line routing, main routing, pipe sizing assistance, riser generation / riser diagrams, and hydraulic calculation inputs / prep.

Fire alarm pathways and circuits

Coordinate fire alarm cable routing, fire alarm conduit/pathway routing, notification appliance circuiting, device-to-panel circuit mapping, and panel/load checks alongside suppression work.

Maps and annunciation

Support fire alarm zone/device map generation and annunciator map generation from coordinated devices, panels, zones, and sequence of operations assumptions.

Calculations and schedules

Prepare battery calculations, voltage-drop calculations, device schedules, sprinkler schedules, and equipment schedules for review.

Review checks

Run coverage gap checks, obstruction checks, spacing checks, pipe continuity checks, and panel/load checks before documentation leaves the team.

Exports and revisions

Create drawing and documentation package export, review-ready calculation reports, and as-built / revision comparison outputs for coordination and closeout.

From intent to coordinated documentation

The same pattern works across each workflow: define intent, generate the model and documentation, validate the result, and hand it off cleanly.

01

Capture the design basis

Enter hazard, coverage, ceiling, alarm device, equipment schedules, sequence of operations, and zone assumptions that the workflow should track.

02

Layout suppression systems

Generate or adjust sprinklers, branch-line routing, main routing, risers, pipe sizing assumptions, and hydraulic calculation inputs.

03

Coordinate alarms and maps

Coordinate fire alarm cable routing, conduit/pathway routing, notification appliance circuiting, device-to-panel mapping, zone/device maps, and annunciator maps.

04

Validate, report, and export

Run coverage, obstruction, spacing, continuity, panel/load, battery, and voltage-drop checks, then export schedules, drawings, reports, and revision comparisons.

Checks teams can reuse

Workflow checks are structured and auditable. They help teams find missing information, inconsistent assumptions, and likely issues before sheets, annotations, reports, or model exports move downstream.

  • Coverage gap checks, obstruction checks, and spacing checks
  • Pipe continuity checks for branch lines, mains, risers, and system zones
  • Panel/load checks for fire alarm devices and notification appliance circuits
  • Battery calculations and voltage-drop calculations
  • Hydraulic calculation inputs / prep and pipe sizing assistance
  • Device schedules, sprinkler schedules, and equipment schedules
  • Fire alarm zone/device map generation and annunciator map generation review
  • Drawing and documentation package export and review-ready calculation reports
  • As-built / revision comparison for revised drawings and model states

End-to-end platform

An end-to-end BIM/design workspace

ArchiLabs runs as a browser-based BIM and design workspace. Teams can import drawings, create structured 3D models, automate sheets and annotations, generate documentation packages, and export data back into Revit, AutoCAD, coordination tools, or custom systems.

The goal is to make repeatable design and documentation logic reusable across projects while still fitting into the BIM and CAD stack your team already has.

Let's build together

Whether you're an MEP firm, modular housing team, fire protection consultant, critical facility group, or embedding design automation into your platform, we'd love to hear how you want to model, automate, validate, document, and quote.
