FD&FA Design Principles - BS5839-1
This course will develop knowledge from the FD&FA foundation BS 5839-1 module and/or industry experience and apply this to the design of FD&FA systems. In this module, emphasis is placed on the process of fire alarm design; enquiry, survey, design, certification and the appropriate recording and documentation requirements. The module uses practical exercises for the practice of design techniques culminating in a design layout exam where delegates demonstrate their knowledge of simple FD&FA system design.
This is module 2 of 5 which can lead to an RQF L3 Award in the Requirements of FD&FA Systems for non-domestic buildings BS 5839-1: 2017.
