In a nutshell

What this course aims to achieve

Analyse a technological fire risk and size the access and fire defence requirements

Four days to size extinguishing means for an industrial risk: water flow rates, foam concentrate quantities, autonomy and supplies.

Key challenges

  • An underestimated flow only shows on the day of the fire, when it is too late to correct.
  • Water, foam and pumping must be consistent: the weakest link decides the outcome.
  • Site or neighbourhood water supplies may not be available when needed.

Learning objectives

  • Understand or size water or foam-concentrate requirements for extinguishing.

Detailed programme

  1. 1Principles for sizing water requirements and retention.
  2. 2Practical application of the targeted standard.

Target audience

  • QHSE staff, design offices and fire-defence technicians.

Prerequisites

  • Basic technical knowledge recommended.

Learning methods

In-person training, technical input and practical exercises.

Learning assessment

Practical sizing exercises.

Scope of application

Content refers to the targeted technical standard (notably D9/D9A) in its edition in force; its applicability depends on the site, activity and country concerned.
