Target Audience

This course is part of a series of three courses suitable for those who assess and design fire engineered buildings e.g:

• Regulators – fire services, local building control officers and approved inspectors
• Assessors – fire risk assessors and fire safety professionals
• Designers – designers and architects of new and extend existing buildings

The series of courses provides learners with the knowledge and understanding through in-depth study and research of auditing Fire Engineering designs. It builds on previous experience in applying fire safety guidance such as Approved Document B and BS 9999.

Aim

Third of three courses to enable delegates to design fire engineering solutions or assess fire engineering design submissions.

Qualification Units

• Unit 5: Fire Engineering Design and its Impact on the Fire Resistance of Materials and Structures
• Unit 7: Pressure Differential Systems
• Unit 8: Fire Engineering Design and its Impact on the External Spread of Fire
• Unit 9: FE Design and its Impact on Access and Facilities for Fire-Fighting
• Unit 10: Principles of Fire and Evacuation Modelling

Core Topic Areas

Using case studies to assess:

• Impact of fire engineering design on internal fire spread
• Impact of fire engineering design on internal structure
• Impact of fire engineering design on external fire spread
• Impact of fire engineering design on access and facility requirements for Fire Service
• Series and parallel pressure differential systems
• Fire and evacuation models

Assessment

Assessment of course work is to qualification assessment criteria.
