Description
The 2018 Edition of NFPA3, Standard for Commissioning
Fire Protection and Life Safety Systems, provides the process, methods, and
documents for commissioning fire protection and life safety systems. The
speaker focuses on the difference between, and implementation of NFPA3 and the
new NFPA4 Standard, Integrated Testing of Fire Protection and Life Safety
Systems: who’s involved, how this new process interfaces with commissioning
providers, and the steps in the commissioning process as it relates to fire
protection and life safety systems. Learn about the fire safety
roles of the Fire Commissioning Agent (FCxA), and the new Integrated Testing
Agent (ITA) who is responsible for review, documentation, and testing the
needed integration/ interfacing between fire protection and life safety systems
across various systems. What are their qualifications and responsibilities, and
how do they fit in into an overall full building commissioning team? The
speaker discusses common misconceptions, misunderstanding, and standardized
terminology of commissioning fire protection and life safety systems, and
reviews EBCx subsets – recommissioning (ReCx) and retrocommissioning (RCx) –
and how they may differ from new construction commissioning.
