Course Details
Fire Fighting Design Training
Design fire detection, suppression, and sprinkler systems per NFPA, NBC, and TAC standards.
Overview
Course Overview
This course provides comprehensive training in fire protection engineering for buildings. Students learn to design automatic sprinkler systems, fire detection and alarm systems, fire hydrant and hose reel systems, and special suppression systems (CO2, FM200) compliant with NFPA, NBC (Part 4 — Fire & Life Safety), and TAC (Tariff Advisory Committee) standards. Highly valued for fire NOC applications and MEP project teams.
