What are the aspects of good Fire Protection System Design?
The main design characteristics of fire protection system design to ensure fire safety are:
- Prevention: Controlling ignition and fuel sources so that fires do not start.
Communications: If ignition occurs, ensuring occupants are informed and any active firesystems are triggered. - Escape: Ensuring that occupants of buildings and surrounding areas are able to move to places of safety.
- Containment: Fire should be contained to the smallest possible area, limiting the amount of property likely to be damaged and the threat to life safety.
- Extinguishment: Ensuring that fire can be extinguished quickly and with minimum consequential damage.
