Be prepared for the new era in fire alarm protection with the
National Fire Alarm CodeŽ Handbook!
This acclaimed reference is the industry's leading guide to
NFPA 72, providing all you need to apply and enforce the new
rules for fire alarm system design and installation. The Handbook
brings you the entire text of the 1999 Code, plus expert tips and
practical advice from two of the foremost authorities on fire alarm
and signaling systems.
Considering the scope of changes to the Code, the 1999 Handbook
is essential!
You'll find out why NFPA 72 has changed and how to comply
with its requirements. But the Handbook also brings you much, much
more! All-new supplements are designed to boost your knowledge about
performance-based design, central stations, integrated systems, and
human response to alarm signals. This reference also delves into the
rationale behind the new Code, such as why actuation of notification
appliances within a protected premises must now occur within 20
instead of 90 seconds.
It's your "fast track" to answers and a valuable training guide!
Whether you design, install, inspect, or maintain fire alarm
systems, this Handbook is a "must" on the job! Commentary stands out
in brick red type and Code text appears in black, so you can quickly
zero in on the facts you need. (432 pp., 1999)
