Unwanted fires injure and kill thousands annually and inflict a monetary impact on communities. Did you know that over 40 percent of the businesses that experience a fire never reopen because they lose their customer base? That is why fire code enforcement is an important public safety function.
In this interactive online course, you will learn about provisions requiring a fire protection system in the 2015 International Fire Code® (IFC®) and the 2015 International Building Code® (IBC®), including required documents, testing, and procedures for impairment and monitoring. You will also learn requirements for automatic sprinkler systems, including key terms, design and installation standards, types, and other vital requirements. Finally, you will explore means of egress systems and various components, such as load, width, distance, illumination, and maintenance.
Developed in partnership with the International Code Council®.
