NFPA 3 and NFPA 4: Commissioning and Integrated System Testing - The University of Texas at Dallas Richardson , TX

10/29/2019 - 10/29/2019

NFPA 3 (2018), Standard for Commissioning of Fire Protection and Life Safety Systems

and

NFPA 4 (2018), Standard for Integrated Fire Protection and Life Safety System Testing

This is a one-day seminar on numerous updates throughout the 2018 edition.


NFPA 3, Standard for Commissioning of Fire Protection and Life Safety Systems was originally developed in response to a request from the National Institute of Building Science (NIBS). It serves a critical need in the built environment by giving stakeholders a process for the commissioning of fire protection and life safety systems, to help them verify that systems are designed, installed, and function as intended. 

NFPA 3 covers the complete commissioning process for system operation throughout the building's life cycle. It is adaptable for all types of systems -- fire protection suppression and control, fire alarm, emergency communications, smoke control, power, fire doors, commercial cooking operations, elevators, and more. 

NFPA 3 works with NFPA 4, Standard for Integrated Fire Protection and Life Safety System Testing.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


NFPA 4, Standard for Integrated Fire Protection and Life Safety System Testing outlines specific test scenarios to confirm the operation, interaction, and coordination of multiple individual systems perform their intended function.

NFPA 4, Standard for Integrated Fire Protection and Life Safety System Testing provides the minimum requirements for integrated testing and documentation prior to building occupancy and during a building's lifecycle.

Help ensure that integrated fire protection and life safety systems operate as intended with NFPA 4's testing scenario requirements for both new and existing systems.

Built around requirements formerly located in NFPA 3's Chapter 7, Integrated System Testing, NFPA 4 includes the protocol for testing procedures, responsibilities of team members, methods, and documentation for verifying the operational readiness and sequence of integrated systems. The Standard does not address testing protocol, procedures, or frequencies for individual systems.
