When confronted with a fire protection problem, building management
is often desperately short on information and know-how in this
critical component of protection for their own facility. It is not
that the material is hard to grasp, but that there is so much of it
that makes the task seem so daunting. Touching on the many
subfields of fire protection engineering, Fire Protection for
Commercial Facilities deconstructs the issues of fire prevention
and life safety into easily digested information. Written in a
conversational tone that makes the concepts easy to understand,
this book presents systems and practices that can increase a
facility's ability to avoid fires, limit the development and spread
of fires, and effectively control fires. It provides guidance for
decision making regarding what can be effectively controlled
in-house, and what should be contracted out to relieve the workload
burden of the in-house staff. The information offered augments a
broad range of expertise common to building or plant engineers,
keeping them abreast of the divergent subfields of fire prevention.
Every facility manager dreams of the day when absolutely nothing
goes wrong, the week where no new unforeseen problems occur. A fire
protection problem is just one of the many emergencies that might
spoil this dream. Delineating current and time-tested fire
protection practices, this book explores the wide array of fire
protection engineering applications encountered during typical
facility operations so that facilities managers can be well-versed,
informed, and better able to handle fire-related incidents.
