New Fire Training Structures (Burn Buildings & Training Towers)

Burn buildings and training towers are particular specialties of ours. We can provide you with a state of the art design to help you accomplish your current and future training objectives. We emphasize safety, durability, versatility, and ease of maintenance.

Our standard designs simulate residential, commercial, apartment, and mid-rise layouts. Each design accommodates NFPA-compliant training for live fire evolutions, search and rescue, ladder drills, vertical and horizontal ventilation, rappelling, and other training. Custom-designed burn buildings and towers can enhance training further by enlarging the training spaces and simulating other occupancies.

Our burn buildings and towers require little maintenance and have a design life of 20 years or more. Our structures are suitable for Class A fuels and LP/natural gas fire training systems. We provide you with comprehensive options to include the latest technology (linings, temperature monitoring, etc.) plus proven details for doors, shutters, and other features.

If you own or operate an existing fire training structure, we offer a variety of services to assist you with maintaining a safe, durable structure.

  • Expanded, "Level II Survey" to evaluate nonuctural systems and to provide master plan and life cycle costing for maintaining/improving/expanding burn building / tower
