A series of skills classes will introduce students to an understanding of the concepts that underlie fire safe design both generally and in terms of Design Study 2. These include the appropriate building geometry, choice of materials, and both passive and active fire protection strategies. The skills will develop in complexity over term 2 to include the understanding of how to predict and assess performance in matters of fire safety

Learning Outcomes听

On successfully completing the module, you will demonstrate the following learning outcomes:

1. Demonstrate how the behaviour of people in escape conditions and smoke in large spaces can be computer modelled.

2. Analyse strategic layouts in the context of 鈥渋ntrinsically fire safe鈥� concepts, legislation, guidance and functionality (including EDI issues).

3. Evaluate volumetric, structural, external and internal finishing material and sustainable choices in the context of a fire safe strategy.

4. Evaluate fire safe envelope design (including the design of long span roofs), with attention to combustibility, thermal insulation, water vapour transmission, ventilation, fire separation, alongside alarm and suppression systems..听
