What is a fire suppression system?
Selecting pipe and piping materials
Selecting pipe and piping materials involves many factors. Designers should approach these decisions and identify strengths and weaknesses of various pipe materials and connection methods.
The benefits of integrated fire protection and life safety system testing
NFPA 3 and NFPA 4 explore integrated fire protection and life safety system testing and are vital to a building’s overall fire/life safety implementation.
Designing passive and active fire protection systems
Fire protection engineers should consider the building's construction, fire suppression systems, and smoke control when designing active and passive fire protection systems. The International Building Code and NFPA standards provide guidance on passive and active fire protection systems.
How to select a clean agent fire suppression system
Fire protection engineers should understand which clean agent fire suppression system is most appropriate for a mission critical facility.
