Typically, it is required in large-volume spaces (e.g.\u00a0shopping malls, theaters, airport terminals, entrance lobbies, and sports arenas) where many occupants may be exposed to the effects of fire. High-risk compartmentalized spaces\u2014such as laboratories, high-rise buildings, and underground facilities\u2014may also require smoke control systems.<\/p>\n<p>Designing and implementing smoke control does not have to be a headache. Strong collaboration among the design team is a must, and a fire protection engineer should be included from the beginning. Having proper understanding of system types, code requirements, and available analysis tools is also necessary.<\/p>\n<p>Smoke control is one aspect of fire protection covered in <em>Fire Safety Strategies<\/em>, the latest addition to <em>The Construction Specifier<\/em>\u2019s series of sponsored e-books.<\/p>\n<p><em>Fire Safety Strategies<\/em> provides a multifaceted look at fire behavior in buildings and designing for occupant safety. This four-part e-book covers perimeter fire protection, fire-rated glazing and fire resistance of wall assemblies.<\/p>\n<p>Readers will discover how ineffective curtain wall design, perimeter void fire protections, or spandrel protection can allow fire to spread to adjacent floors in high rises. Plus, learn the questions to ask when specifying fire-rated glazing in fire doors.<\/p>\n<p>Download the <em>Fire Safety Strategies<\/em> e-book in two different formats\u2014pdf or digital edition\u2014by visiting <a href=\"https:\/\/www.constructionspecifier.com\/ebook\/owens-corning-fire-safety-strategies-e-book\/\">https:\/\/www.constructionspecifier.com\/ebook\/owens-corning-fire-safety-strategies-e-book\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Smoke control is one aspect of fire protection covered in Fire Safety Strategies, the latest addition to The Construction Specifier\u2019s series of sponsored e-books.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5973,"featured_media":69042,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1029],"tags":[614,3721,60,1649,70,2377,1218,1071],"class_list":["post-69040","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-curtain-wall","tag-e-book","tag-fire","tag-fire-safety","tag-insulation","tag-skyscraper","tag-smoke","tag-wall-assemblies","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.8 -
