Hot Topics: Temporary Fire Alarm System Design for Construction Sites

Discover best practice in fire alarm design for welfare units and construction sites at our upcoming Howler Hot Topics session. Presented by Martin Woodfield, this half-day CPD-accredited course covers how fire detection systems can help protect extended escape routes, with practical case studies and interactive discussion.

What you can expect to learn:

  • Principles of temporary fire alarm systems on construction sites

  • Where BS5839-1 applies and how to ensure compliance

  • How to position call points and sounders effectively

  • When and where to install automatic detection

  • Options for external detection systems on scaffolding

Ideal for fire engineers, risk engineers, and fire risk assessors, delegates will leave with practical knowledge they can apply immediately to enhance site safety and compliance with current standards.
