Abstract: This paper discusses fire-safety upgrades and the various aspects of their design and construction in standard airport traffic control towers (ATCTs) for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in the Western Pacific region. Towers provide a safe and orderly flow of airport traffic for the benefit of the flying public. Knowledge of ATCT fire-safety upgrades can benefit professionals and contractors in various engineering fields, especially those interested in project management and control techniques. Specifically, the successful upgrading of 35 standard towers in the Western Pacific region to provide smoke-free, fire-protected means of egress and early-warning fire detection and alarm system, as specified in FAA's
