Advanced Fire Alarm System Design Seminar - Session II: Computational Methods of Fire Alarm System Design
October 16-17, 2008
Instructor(s): John M. Cholin, P.E.,FSFPE, Jeffrey Moore, P.E., and Christopher Marrion, P.E., FSFPE
Upon completion of this course the participants will possess a basic familiarity with the computational methods used to predict fire alarm system performance in the context of both prescriptive design in accordance with the National Fire Alarm Code and Performance-Based Design in accordance with Annex B of the National Fire Alarm Code.
This two-day seminar focuses on the computational methods used to implement a performance-based design approach to fire alarm design problems. It includes a review of fire dynamics, computational methods for predicting initiating device response and computational methods for predicting the efficacy of both visible and audible occupant notification. Participants will solve a number of design problems during the course of the seminar.
Attendees should bring with them their own copies of NFPA 101-2006, Life Safety Code, NFPA 72-2007, National Fire Alarm Code, and a scientific calculator.
Successful completion of the SFPE Advanced Fire Alarm System Design Seminar - Session I is a prerequisites for this course.
