Fire & Smoke Protection with Life Safety Dampers

Fire & Smoke Protection with Life Safety Dampers

The use of life safety dampers is driven by requirements in various building codes. There are many different applications for which fire, fire/smoke, smoke, and/or ceiling radiation dampers can be used, each having its own specific purpose and unique installation requirements. This course gives an in-depth look at the different types of dampers and explains how and where they're each used and installed.

Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:

Recognize the difference between the types of dampers, such as fire dampers and smoke dampers, their functions, and which applications they're intended for.
Consider key system design considerations, such as when to use static or dynamic dampers, to ensure protection of buildings and occupants.
Explain who determines where dampers need to be installed, what makes an installation legal, and how dampers are qualified to meet various industry codes and standards.
Determine the basic steps to take for a successful installation of dampers that will function correctly and protect both structures and occupants.

Approximately 1 hour, 15 minutes. Delivered online, at your own pace.
