Where can I get fire safety training in Philadelphia PA for daycare employees.
It would be extremely helpful if someone give me a website phone number or even the name of a place.

I’d call the local non-emergency number for the fire station. Lots of them have programs available to the public

What are some ideas for organizing a Fire Safety event?

admin — Sat, 24 Sep 2011 00:54:18 +0000

We are organizing a Fire Safety event at work, and I need some ideas bad. Any suggestions? Thanks!

When I worked as a home health Nurse we gave our patients smoke detectors and batteries. Visit your local fie house. Many firemen do their jobs for free. They work two jobs. Call ahead and ask for a convient time. Be careful not to interfere with an emergency.

Fire safety considerations in the design stage of a building.?

admin — Fri, 12 Aug 2011 16:52:16 +0000

Hi I have an essay question and need some help on what various factors surveyors and service engineers need to consider, at the design stage for ensuring life safety in the event of a fire in a modern 10 storey commercial building with a floor area of 2000m2?

Generally speaking, Fire resistant doors, Not sure of commercial requirements, But residential require 30 min fire resistant doors, And as it is commercial it would of course need emergency lighting, wired to a seperate circuit.
All corridors are not blocked, Fire extinguishers placed at adequate points, And all locations noted and ensure that staff know locations, As well as an emergency meeting point outside of the location.

All fire escapes are structually sound, They will not collapse in a short length of time. All I can think of for now.

I need to set up a 4 zone panel with 4 detectors and install 4 emergency lights in a small industry unit. We are a charity and I want to avoid being ripped off. How much on average should just installation of the above cost?

Get in contact with one of the bigger companies like ADT they will not rip you off and will give you the best advice. Also contact you local fire station for help and advice.

How many people would know the fire-safety basics after 10-months? Problem Solving?

admin — Mon, 09 May 2011 20:21:12 +0000

The volunteer firefighters were frustrated with their efforts at basic fire prevention training. It seemed that no matter how many fire – safety meetings they set up, hardly anybody ever paid attention. They devised a plan. They decided that each of them (there were eight firefighters) would teach two other people the fire-safety basics. At that point, the teacher would retire but each student would then teach two others. Those people, in turn, would teach two others. The whole thing would be mandated by the city council, and each person would have a month to fulfill his or her teaching requirement. The firefighters taught the first group of people in the first month. Under this plan, how many people would know the fire-safety basics after 10 months?

At the beginning (t = 0 months), the number of people N who knew fire-safety basics were the eight firefighters. So,

N(0) = 8

After the first month (t = 1), 16 more people knew fire-safety basics. So,

N(1) = 8 + 16 = 24

After the second month, 32 more people knew fire-safety basics. So,

N(2) = 8 + 16 + 32 = 56

Note that all the terms in the sum are powers of two. That is,

N(2) = 2^3 + 2^4 + 2^5

So, after the third month,

N(3) = 2^3 + 2^4 + 2^5 + 2^6,

… and

N(4) = 2^3 + 2^4 + 2^5 + 2^6 + 2^7

In general,

N(t) = 2^3 + 2^4 + … + 2^(t + 3)
= 8 (2^0 + 2^1 + … + 2^t)

Also,

N(t + 1) – N(t) = [ 2^3 + 2^4 + ... + 2^(t + 3) + 2^(t + 4) ] – [ 2^3 + 2^4 + ... + 2^(t + 3) ]
= 2^(t + 4)
= (16) (2^t)

So,

N(t) = (16) (2^t) – 8

And,

N(10) = (16) (2^10) – 8
= 16,376

I want to insulate an exterior wall in my garage. What is the fire/safety code regarding that?

admin — Wed, 06 Apr 2011 21:22:12 +0000

I have an exterior wall in my attached garage that is not insulated at the moment. I was looking at putting up the paper backed pink fiberglass insulation. I was wondering if you had to cover the insulation with sheetrock/drywall to meet fire regulations, or if i could just staple up the insulation and be good. I live in ohio and tried searching the Ohio Revised Code to no avail. Any licensed contractors/code experts that can fill me in?

The garage is not part of the living space and since the wall is not against the living space you should be able to do whatever you want as long as the electrical is up to code.
Check with the local building code officials to make sure

In a garage, I would opt for peg board rather than sheetrock or just insulation but to each his own.

Can you tell me any turkish university that offers fire safety engineering?

admin — Mon, 04 Apr 2011 22:26:15 +0000

I am interested in a MS in fire safety. or fire protection engineering. I could not find mnay universities in europe that do offer that program. Is there any in turkey that do offer it?

Hmm, Fire Safety Engineering as a standalone program is NOT offered in any universities in Turkey neither as a BS nor MS as far as i know. There might be elective classes you could take in a Mechanical Engineering program to specialize a bit in fire protection but that would be it.
Actually, i don’t think it’s offered in Europe either as a seperate program by many universities as you found out about it the hard way.

I know of a joint program offered by ERASMUS involving three different universities in Europe: Ghent University (Belgium), University of Edinburgh (Scotland) and Lund University (Sweden). I think that one is probably the best option out there you could find as long as you don’t plan to get education in the US.
Here, let me get you the link:

Good luck.

does your fire safety plan advise you to close your office door as part of preparing to evacuate?

admin — Thu, 16 Dec 2010 10:50:12 +0000

my company’s does but my city’s FD fire safety plan says only close the door if it is where the fire was discovered. pretty big contradiction. what does yours say?

Ours says to close the door to the room where the fire was found, and leave all other doors open.
