This online reading-based asynchronous distance learning course :
Explores the science of fire, including its essential components and classifications. Participants will examine suppression strategies—freezing (removing heat), starving (removing fuel), and asphyxiating (removing oxygen)—alongside building code provisions for fire separations, barriers, and partitions. The course emphasizes extinguisher use, automatic detection and suppression systems, and wildfire control methods. By the end, participants will be prepared to design and manage projects with enhanced fire safety and compliance.
