This course is designed to familiarize engineers with basic principles relating to fire science and protection. Some of the topics covered are loss statistics, regulatory issues, safety objectives, design solutions to reduce hazard threats, combustion and flame dynamics, chemical reactions, heat transfer, stage of fire development, the role of air supply within enclosures, fire suppression and detection systems, as well as fire and building code. This publication is an appropriate course for occupational safety and health, thermodynamics, and applied engineering chemistry. (Publication Source: US Dept. of Labor (OSHA).

Topics: Identification of pertinent fire safety objectives The dynamics of fire science Identification of factors affecting the fire performance of materials Building and Fire prevention code Development of effective design solutions to reduce hazards Fire loss statistics related to injury, death, and property damage The regulatory framework intended to ensure fire safety The role of reduced air supply and heat transfer in enclosure fires The stages of fire growth in enclosures Measures of fire severity The scope of fire protection issues Integrated fire safety design Theory of a fire detection system and its compatibility with the hazard Fire suppression systems Fire science terminology.
