Threat Mitigation: Protecting People and Property
In today’s rapidly evolving world, safety is a critical factor in architectural design. This course examines how fenestration systems enhance building protection through bullet resistance, fortified glazing, and advanced barrier solutions. Learn how potential threats influence the selection of these systems and how they integrate seamlessly into architectural projects.
Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:
- Identify how potential safety and security threats influence the selection of fenestration systems, partitions, and glazing that protect building occupants from weapons fire
- Differentiate between a variety of security glazing and barrier products and identify their appropriateness to different levels and types of threat
- Explain recent revisions to UL 752, “Standard for Bullet-Resisting Equipment,” and apply this standard to the specification of security glazing products suitable for specific threat scenarios
- Recall additional codes and standards that apply to bullet-resistant products in extreme weather zones.
