{"product_id":"2940012910936","title":"Fire Service Features of Buildings and Fire Protection Systems","description":"The purpose of this manual is to increase the safety of building occupants and emergency responders by streamlining fire service interaction with building features and fire protection systems. The information in this manual will assist designers of buildings and fire protection systems to better understand the needs of the fire service when they are called upon to operate in or near the built environment. To put this another way, architects and engineers create workplaces for firefighters. Designs can be tailored to better meet operational\u003cbr\u003eneeds, thereby reducing the time it takes to mitigate an incident.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe guidance in this manual is expected to decrease the injuries to responding and operating fire service personnel. When an incident can be mitigated faster, there is less time for the hazardous situation to grow in proportion. With less potential exposure, employees occupying buildings will be afforded greater protection from fire incidents.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEmployee occupants as well as fire service employees will realize the benefits of this manual in terms of safe working conditions as intended by the\u003cbr\u003eOccupational Safety and Health Act of 1970. The codes and standards governing buildings and fire protection systems are well understood by\u003cbr\u003edesigners. However, many portions of these codes and standards allow design variations or contain only general performance language. The resulting flexibility permits the selection of different design options. Some of these options may facilitate fire service operations better than others.","brand":"1001 Property Solutions LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47079066206448,"sku":"2940012910936","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940012910936_p0.jpg?v=1763574297","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940012910936","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
