Also covered are the interactions between standpipe and sprinkler systems, since these important fire protection systems are so frequently installed together. Illustrated with design examples and practical applications to reinforce the learning experience, this is the go-to reference for engineers, architects, design technicians, building inspectors, fire inspectors, and anyone that inspects, tests or maintains fire protection systems. Fire marshals and plan review authorities that have the responsibility for reviewing and accepting plans and hydraulic calculations for standpipe systems are also an important audience, as are firefighters who actually use standpipe systems. As a member of the committees responsible for some of these documents, Isman also covers the rules of these standards and codes as they are written, but also provides valuable insight as to the intent behind the rules. A noted author and lecturer, Professor Isman was an engineer with the National Fire Sprinkler Association (NFSA), is an elected Fellow of the Society of Fire Protection Engineers (SFPE), and currently Clinical Professor in the Department of Fire Protection Engineering at University of Maryland. 606 $aFire prevention 606 $aQuality control 606 $aReliability 606 $aIndustrial safety 606 $aFire Science, Hazard Control, Building Safety$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T23130 606 $aQuality Control, Reliability, Safety and Risk$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T22032 615 0$aFire prevention. 615 0$aQuality control. 615 0$aReliability. 615 0$aIndustrial safety. 615 14$aFire Science, Hazard Control, Building Safety. 615 24$aQuality Control, Reliability, Safety and Risk. 676 $a628.13 700 $aIsman$b Kenneth E$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0924552 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910156337503321 996 $aStandpipe Systems for Fire Protection$92075350 997 $aUNINA
