Questions we hear from contractors and owners.

Most jurisdictions require a licensed Professional Engineer's stamp on fire sprinkler and fire protection drawings before they will issue a permit. If your building department or fire marshal asks for signed and sealed plans, that is the stamp Rush provides.

Rush designs to NFPA 13, 13R, and 13D for sprinkler systems, plus NFPA 409 for aircraft hangars and NFPA 30 for flammable and combustible liquids. FM Global data sheets and UFC military standards are used when a project calls for them.

Wet, dry, deluge, and pre-action sprinkler systems, standpipes, and fire pumps. Each is delivered as PE-stamped drawings with the supporting hydraulic calculations.

Rush holds PE licensure in Kansas, Missouri, Texas, and Oklahoma, and has designed and stamped projects across seven states, including Tennessee, Nebraska, and Iowa.

Turnaround depends on the size and complexity of the project, but fast, dependable scheduling is a core part of the service, including availability outside normal working hours when a deadline demands it. Send your scope and deadline and you will get a straight answer on timing.

Yes. Every system is hydraulically calculated, and those calculations are delivered alongside the stamped drawings so the design can be reviewed and installed with confidence.

All three. Rush works with fire sprinkler and alarm contractors, architects and AE firms, and building owners and developers, along with specialized clients such as aviation projects.

Rush produces drawings in AutoCAD and HydraCAD and models systems in AutoSPRINK, so deliverables fit cleanly into contractor and design-team workflows.

Architectural or building plans, the scope of work, and your deadline are enough to start. Send what you have and you will reach the engineer or lead designer directly to talk through fit and schedule.
