Webinar: IBC and Fire Sprinklers: Blessing or Burden?

Webinar: IBC and Fire Sprinklers

The International Building Code is laden with options and alternatives based largely on occupancy and construction type. There is nothing that impacts these choices more than fire sprinklers. This webinar is designed to introduce you to many of the advantages fire sprinklers offer in the ICC codes, thereby helping you create an improved strategy for working in the Design/Build market. The presentation will introduce you to the building codes and installation standards that influence the design and installation of fire sprinklers by exposing those sections of the IBC that fire sprinklers influence. Features such as area and height limitations, passive separations, egress and exiting , construction types and more are all included. Anyone who designs, installs or inspects fire sprinkler systems will not want to miss this very informative and interactive presentation.
