20250041640 · 2025-02-06 · ·

A wildfire defense system trailer and method of installing an automated sprinkler-based wildfire defense system on a home construction site before the starting of the construction phase of a home building project in a wildfire urban interface (WUI) region. The first commissioned automated sprinkler-based wildfire defense system will continue in operation all during the home building construction phase, and will only be decommissioned from operation, and removed from the premises (including the job-site wildfire defense system trailer being removed from the property) when construction of the wood home building project is totally completed, and the wood home building is ready for occupation. At the same time when the first system is decommissioned, a second permanently-installed automated sprinkler-based wildfire defense system is installed within the new home construction, independent from the first system, and ready for commissioning to provide a new proactive measure of defense against a wildfire storm occurring after home building construction has been completed, thereby protecting all wood and combustible surfaces on the home and surrounding property, and preventing fire ignition and flame spread until the wildfire storm passes through the WUI region. By virtue of the present invention, it is now possible to significantly reduce the risk of wood home building construction projects occurring within a wildfire urban interface (WUI) region, and better support the underwriting of home construction and ownership insurance policies within such regions.

METHOD AND A SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING FIRE SAFETY OF A CAR PARK
20250121224 · 2025-04-17 ·

The present invention relates to a method of providing fire safety of a car park, comprising the steps of: a. scanning an underside of a vehicle from underneath prior to entering the car park using a first scanning means; b. transmitting scanned data to an evaluation unit; and c. transmitting a command from the evaluation unit to a car park entry control means, and subsequently allowing or denying entry of the scanned vehicle into the car park. In step a., at least one parameter selected from mechanical damage to the underside of the vehicle and temperature of the underside of the vehicle is obtained to generate the scanned data. In step b., the data is compared with reference data and/or previously stored data. Based on said comparison, the evaluation unit determines whether the scanned vehicle is at least partially electrically powered and, subsequently, whether at least one of said parameters exceeds a threshold value for mechanical damage and/or temperature of the underside of the vehicle, thereby generating the command to the car park entry control means. If the scanned vehicle is at least partially electrically powered and the mechanical damage and/or the temperature of the underside of the vehicle is above the threshold value, said command is to deny entry of the scanned vehicle into the car park. If the scanned vehicle has mechanical damage and temperature of the underside of the vehicle below the threshold value, said command is to allow entry of the scanned vehicle into the car park. The present invention further relates to a system for providing fire safety of a car park.
