SMOKE CONTROL CPD SEMINARS EXTENDED

We invite you to attend one, two or even three of these seminars, which are available either over three separate days or over the course of a complete morning or afternoon.

Our seminars are accredited by the Construction CPD Service, and are intended to inform, educate and inspire you.


The Basic Principles of Smoke Control Systems
This seminar covers the history of smoke control, and the design parameters and principles for single and multi-storey commercial, retail, industrial, residential and mixed use buildings and underground car parks.

Car Park Ventilation
This seminar covers the requirement for the natural or mechanical ventilation of underground car parks as required by Approved Documents B & F. It has been updated to include the recently updated Part F and BS7346-7:2006. It also covers smoke clearance versus smoke control and impulse ventilation versus traditional ductwork systems.

Smoke Ventilation using shafts
This seminar covers the requirement for smoke ventilation in multi-storey buildings as required by Approved Document B and BS5588-5:2004. It has been updated to encompass recent research and covers designs for mechanically assisted fire fighting and means-of-escape shaft systems, reviews the significant space saving benefits of mechanical shafts when compared to natural, and also covers mechanical shaft ventilation for extended travel distances in residential corridors.
