Frequently Asked Questions on Fire Protection System
What are the types of fire protection systems?
Fire protection systems can be classified into two general categories: active fire protection systems and passive fire protection systems.
An active system refers to the equipment that is proactively installed to detect and suppress fires before they can cause significant damage. Examples of active fire protection equipment include fire alarm systems, automatic fire suppression systems, etc.
By contrast, passive fire protection refers to measures taken to prevent the spread of a fire by relying on physical barriers between combustible materials such as walls made from masonry blocks filled with concrete or plaster, metal doors with metal frames, etc.

How to design a fire protection system?

Next, it is important to assess the type of fire protection needed for the building. This includes considering factors such as occupancy type and any hazardous materials present. With this information in hand, an appropriate type of fire protection system can be chosen.
Finally, it is important to ensure that the system is properly installed and maintained according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Regular maintenance and inspections should also be conducted to identify any potential issues before they become a problem.
