Fire suppression design is one of the most important aspects of fire and life safety engineering. Every project has unique requirements, and engineers should understand planning and implementing fire protection systems for a wide range of building types and hazard levels.
Fire suppression frequently includes a sprinkler system to extinguish or contain a fire. Suppression systems include water-based, wet, dry, pre-action systems, clean agent, foam, mist and a host of specialty systems. These systems are considered active fire suppression.
