Foundations of Life Safety: Passive Systems and Means of Egress
What you’ll learn:
This course covers the role of passive life safety systems in hospitals. It explains how smoke compartments, fire-rated barriers, and means of egress work together to meet NFPA 101 (2012) requirements. Real-world hospital scenarios show how these systems support defend-in-place evacuation strategies and help protect occupants during a fire.
