About this guide

Essential fire safety concepts, equipment and emergency preparedness for buildings and construction sites. It covers fire classification, extinguisher types, their applications and operating procedures, and explains smoke detectors, alarms, sprinklers, hydrants, hose reels and residential systems including wet risers, dry risers and yard hydrants. Evacuation planning, emergency exits, assembly points and safety drills are set out alongside sample certificates and inspection reports, so readers can recognise the safety requirements that protect occupants, construction personnel and property.
