Name
Fire Operations in High-Rise and Large-Area Structures
Description

In this session, various elements of fire protection systems are translated "to the street" for firefighters and company officers. Significant knowledge of standpipe and sprinkler systems, fire pumps, fire alarm control panels, and other building safety features is often reserved for fire prevention or code enforcement personnel. Attendees will gain an understanding of complex fire protection system components that will enable them to apply the easy-to-remember principles on working incidents. Attendees are also guided in developing a realistic company-level pre-incident planning program. Case studies involving LODDs and high-dollar-loss fires that occurred in buildings despite fire protection systems being in place are also examined.
