Learn to design real sprinkler, standpipe, fire pump, foam, clean agent, and kitchen hood suppression systems — NFPA standards, hydraulic calculations, hazard classification, and testing/commissioning.
21 modules and 5 complete real-project design packages, with worked calculations, field documentation, and a certificate of completion.
Active vs. passive fire protection, the fire triangle, and the standards landscape.
The key NFPA standards this program references and how they get adopted into code.
Water supply sources, flow test methodology, and supply adequacy analysis.
Wet pipe, dry pipe, pre-action, and deluge systems, and sprinkler head selection.
The density/area method, Hazen-Williams friction loss, and remote area selection.
Standpipe classes, wet vs. dry standpipes, and high-rise zoning.
Fire pump types, NFPA 20 sizing, and pump room requirements.
Foam concentrate types, the PFAS transition, and proportioning methods.
Halocarbon vs. inert gas agents, NFPA 2001 design concentration, and room integrity.
NFPA 96 wet chemical suppression and shutoff interlocks.
High- vs. low-pressure mist systems and NFPA 750 applications.
NFPA 13 occupancy hazard classes and commodity classification.
Drawing set organization and coordination with other disciplines.
Pipe installation practices, seismic bracing, and pump installation.
Acceptance testing requirements and commissioning documentation.
NFPA 25 inspection, testing, and maintenance frequencies.
Real diagnostic scenarios covering common real fire suppression problems.
Commodity classification and a full hydraulic calculation for high-piled storage.
A wet chemical suppression design for a restaurant cooking line.
Agent selection and a design concentration calculation for a data center room.
Standpipe zoning and per-zone fire pump sizing for a 40-story tower.
A foam-water deluge design for an enclosed, below-grade parking garage.
12 real project templates — a hydraulic calculation summary sheet, sprinkler working plan checklist, contractor's material and test certificate, fire pump acceptance test report, foam concentrate test report, clean agent room integrity test report, NFPA 25 inspection checklist, kitchen hood semi-annual service report, submittal log, RFI template, punch list, and an as-built documentation checklist. Available for download from Module 20 (Documentation & Resource Kit) once you've unlocked the program.
Coming later: sample hydraulic calculation software output files and video demonstrations. Not included in this release.
