This course provides an overview of the design of fire-fighting systems. It covers the discussion of fire extinguishing agents such as CO2, FM200, and FOAM, as well as design and calculation methods according to NFPA standards. Examples are provided to simplify the process. The course also covers fire system types, such as manual hose lines, FDC, and stand-pipe, and how to choose between them and their limitations. Fire pipes and their types are also addressed, including their coating specification and method of connection between pipes according to their sizes. Fire pipe configurations and all basic calculations for the flow rate and pressure loss using NFPA tables are explained with examples. The last design step is the fire pump, including calculating their GPM and pressure losses and their method of drive. Electric motor, diesel engine, and steam turbine are all discussed. This course provides all the necessary information to become a professional designer.
