Course information (Content/Overview)

Aim of CPD:

This CPD should help the professional to understand and improve the implementation of fire protection, improve instructions/specifications, and to check the fire installations on site in an informed way. It addresses the very basic concepts and regulations and does not address complex buildings and detailed complex calculations. It is aimed at the average designer and will touch on the most important and relevant highlights from the different SANS documents.

Participants are encouraged to obtain their own copies of the 2024 edition before starting this course.

1.               The CPD is presented in the following 4 parts:

2.               Properties of fire and new definitions, safety distances, occupancies and divisions, protection of openings, and roof requirements.

3.               Ceilings, flooring and other finishes, escape and emergency routes, stairways, lobbies, fire detection and alarms, fire stopping, seating, Cat 1 buildings.

4.               Water supply and reticulation, firefighting equipment (hose reels etc.), sprinkler systems, fire dampers.

5.               History: some historical snippets of interest about fire protection.

FORMAT: this CPD is presented in a correspondence format. The participant will receive the presentation and accompanying notes in a PDF format by e-mail on the starting date. The course must be completed within 14 days. This will enable the participants to work at their own pace, and to move between slides and notes to and fro for better understanding. No need to be at a computer at any specific time, or be affected by load shedding, and will use less than 40Mb data. Questions may be submitted by e-mail. A short questionnaire has to be completed at the end to ascertain that the participant has worked through the material and has understood it. When studied properly, this CPD is the equivalent of a one day event.
