Category Professional-applicative
Scientific or art field Quality, Effectiveness and Logistics
ECTS 4

The student acquires theoretical and practical knowledge necessary for independent design of stationary fire extinguishing systems, their application and maintenance.

Acquired knowledge in the course is applied for independent design of stationary fire extinguishing systems and their maintenance.

Theoretical lectures: Fire fighting water supply: the requirements for fire fighting water, sources, reservoirs and water accumulation, pumping and water transportation. Installations for water supply: sizing and pipe network plan with all belonging elements. Selection and sizing of pumps. Design and dimensioning of the external and internal hydrant network. Design of stationary systems: criteria for system selection. Extinguishing spraying systems – sprinklers. Other systems and contemporary extinguishing equipment. Application of the system depending on the type of facility. System selection. Fundamentals of design. Project assignments. System activation and activating elements. Pipe network. Armature. Nozzles. Carriers. Hydraulic calculation. Calculation of the amount of resources for fire fighting. Instructions for installation, test mode, testing and maintenance. Practice: Practice is mainly computing and partially held in the computer center where the working simulation of stable systems for fire protection is carried out on the computers.

Lectures: Lectures are combined with active participation of students. Theoretical part is followed by corresponding examples which contribute to the clarification of the theory. Consultations. Practice: writing the term paper and project assignments through application of acquired theoretical knowledge.
