Description
A crash course in firefighting. After finishing this course, you will gain a good knowledge about firefighting system types and components. Also, you will gain good knowledge how to design a fire system and size its pumps. Following are the course components:Section 1: Standpipe and fire hose system pump sizing NFPA 14 is the code to use in this lesson. Section 2: Fire hose system pipe sizing This video provides you with a simple way to calculate or size the fire hose / landing valve system piping.Section 3: All about Sprinkler System, its types and a design example of wet sprinkler system understand and design firefighting sprinkler systems even if you do not have any background about it. Firefighting basics, the fire triangle, Firefighting system types, Sprinkler head types (upright, pendent, sidewall and concealed), Sprinkler system types: wet system pipe, dry system pipe, pre-action and deluge system pipes, Sprinkler system designSection 4: Zone control valve You will learn in this short video the fire Zone Control Valve Assembly and function.Section 5: Fire department connectionSection 6: End suction pump vs split case pumpknow the difference between end suction pumps and split case pumps, their capacities, types and fields of usage.
