SUMMARY:Signage Requirements in NFPA 13
DESCRIPTION:The failure to include the required signage is an obvious mistake that can be costly. Numerous signs are required by NFPA 13\, Standard for the Installation of Sprinkler Systems and other standards; however\, many sprinkler designers\, installers\, and inspectors are not familiar with the signs they are required to provide. We all know about the requirement for control valve and main drain signs\, but what about the rest? This presentation will discuss required signs and explain why they are critical for the safe operation of a sprinkler system. \n  \n  \n Register & More Info\n  \n

SUMMARY:Beginning Design School
DESCRIPTION:The Beginning Design School presents a comprehensive\, practical approach to preparing fire sprinkler system drawings. Over a three-week period\, students will attend six live webinars studying and reviewing the installation and design approach requirements of NFPA 13 (2022) while completing self-paced exercises and module assessments. Q&A sessions and open discussions will also be included as part of the online instruction. The second part of the class will be a week of in-person training\, preparing fire sprinkler system layout\, shop drawings\, and hydraulic calculations by hand. The course concludes with a comprehensive exam of the class content including the installation requirements and hydraulics. There is no CAD or third-party software taught in this class. \n  \n Learn More & Register\n  \n
