Safety System Drawing Design & Approval
Overview

What is this service?

Design and approval of integrated safety system drawings for facilities and buildings, covering suppression systems, early warning alarm and evacuation routes, stamped by an accredited engineer to the Saudi Building Code (SBC 801), NFPA standards and Civil Defense requirements. ABAK's team classifies the hazard, designs the systems and their calculations, files the drawing on the Salamah portal and follows it through to approval on the first review.

Why do you need this service?

A prerequisite for the Civil Defense permit and the safety certificate.

Protects life and property and reduces fire risk.

Civil Defense assesses against the code, not merely the presence of equipment — correct design prevents rejection.

An engineer-stamped drawing accepted on the Salamah portal without delay.

How It Works

Service Preparation Steps

01

Facility classification

The facility type and hazard classification are determined and the current state assessed.

02

Site inspection

A site inspection establishes what each system requires.

03

Design

Suppression, alarm and evacuation drawings are designed and the systems calculated.

04

Certification

The drawing is stamped by an accredited engineer.

05

Filing

The drawing is filed on the Salamah portal and comments handled.

06

Delivery

The approved drawing is handed over, ready for installation and licensing.

Frequently Asked Questions About This Service

Which safety systems does my facility need?

The systems follow from classifying the facility type and its hazard level, and typically cover fire detection and alarm, a suitable suppression network, emergency exits, evacuation routes and emergency lighting — with coverage and spacing set by the code, not by judgement.

Why are safety drawings sometimes rejected?

Because Civil Defense assesses code compliance, not merely the presence of equipment on site. Common failures include insufficient sprinkler or detector coverage, non-compliant evacuation routes and undocumented calculations — exactly what a pre-submission audit catches.

What does hazard classification mean?

It establishes the hazard level of the activity and the materials inside the facility, and the protection requirements follow from it: the type of suppression system, its coverage density and the evacuation requirements. A wrong classification means the entire design is unacceptable.

Does the drawing have to be stamped by an engineer?

Yes — a safety drawing is not accepted on the Salamah portal unless certified by an accredited engineering office under an engineer's stamp, and that includes the system calculations on which the approval decision rests.
