TP – 1129 An Introduction to Architectural Design of Fire Stations for Professional Engineers

Description

Architectural design is a largely subjective process that is best illustrated using a “casebook” approach. In this course the “case” is fire stations. This discussion provides guidance for development of fire stations appropriate for fighting the two primary types of fires: Structure fires and Airport Crash fires. This information may be used by architects, engineers, designers, and others involved in the development and approval of fire station projects. It is intended to help all participants better understand fire station requirements, programs, and design criteria so they can effectively participate in the project development process.
