Course Description:
Good fire protection requires an adequate water supply and the
credibility of a fire protection specialist is tested when it becomes
necessary to establish :
8
The quantity and pressure of water needed to
provide adequate fire
protection.
8
The ability of existing water supply systems to |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
|
provide fire protection
in addition to domestic and industrial requirements.
8
The adequacy of a water supply in conjunction with a particular piping
system
to provide effective automatic sprinkler protection.
8
Alternatives for improving deficiencies.
This course focuses on each of these points by applying the basics of
fluid mechanics and the practical aspects of fire protection hydraulics.
During hands-on laboratories class members will measure water flow,
conduct hydrant flow tests and calculate water pressure loss due to
elevation and friction loss. A solid foundation in fire protection
hydraulics, with emphasis on testing and calculation procedures is
provided by attending this 16-hour course. |
