8 Training Hours

Format: Instant Access Recorded Course

Course Description

Storage is one of the most challenging fire protection scenarios. This course is based on NFPA 13 and reviews the key decision points to apply an approved design option for fire sprinkler use with storage applications. Utilizing an interactive teaching method, this seminar follows the path that an engineer, designer, or AHJ uses when evaluating storage protection. The foundational questions of “What is being stored?”, “How is it stored?”, and “How high is it stored?”, are reviewed in detail. Once these questions are answered, the various design approaches are considered to determine the best solution for the particular scenario. The seminar ends with a hands-on activity using the information shared in the course.
