Summary
By teaching the course, students will understand the importance and function of building structures and then apply the technical requirements for fire protection of industrial buildings (production spaces, technological equipments, warehouses, etc.). They analyze the conditions of evacuation, the possibility of the spread of fire in the industrial building and the surrounding area, apply the requirements for fire intervention, apply elements of active fire protection (fire safety equipment aimed at the protection of persons, animals and property with an emphasis on ensuring the conditions for successful fire intervention).
