DESIGN-BASED TRAINING
We currently have 6 available training programmes
1. Introduction to Passive Fire Protection
Learning Outcomes:
Understand the dynamics of a fire and define how both active and passive fire protection (PFP) plays a critical role in building safety.
Evaluate the importance of compartmentation in limiting the spread of smoke and fire
Position UK legislation, regulatory standards and codes on how they play a role in today’s market and compliance
Identify the main types of PFP products and their applications in buildings.
Assess the relevance of product testing standards and third-party verification
3. Testing & Product Information
2. Regulations & Guidance
Learning Outcomes:
Differentiate between Acts, Regulations, and Guidance, and explain their role in Passive Fire Protection.
Identify the key legislation shaping building safety today
Apply the principles of the Gateway System and Golden Thread to ensure compliance and accountability throughout a project lifecycle
Evaluate the strengths and limitations of prescriptive (ADB) vs. performance-based (BS 9999/BS 7974) approaches in different project contexts
Demonstrate how collaboration between duty holders (client, designer, contractor, accountable person) is legally required and practically essential to ensure fire-safe buildings.
5. Stakeholder Management
Learning Outcomes:
Understand the importance of Stakeholder Management and the contributing factors to cost control, risk mitigation, quality assurance, innovation and competency
Implement a stakeholder management framework of why, what, how and who to establish effective outcomes
Establish the relevant stakeholders when reviewing design considerations
Identifying the right stakeholders and the importance of their individual input in a collective outcome / objective
Transferring the contribution of independent stakeholders into recognised construction frameworks such as the RIBA plan of works
Establishing the meaning of compliance and the reasoning that needs to underline it in design intent and effort
Dive deeper into the need and milestones for a design-process and how rulesets from the ASFP support it
Exploring the design, construction and end-user stakeholder profiles and their individual responsibilities and overarching objectives
6. Design Process
Learning Outcomes:
Define a process for your organisation based on the learnings through previous modules
Go through an interactive design workshop with Pyrometrix lead trainers
4. Design Principles
Learning Outcomes:
Understand the Basic Design Principles for Penetrations, Linear Joints and Cavities and their implication on Product Selection and Implementation
Identify additional Design Principles and Considerations for PFP Design
Assess different design scenarios and identify the necessary information required to determine the best PFP solution
