This product is a PDF that contains links to files that consist of PowerPoint slides synchronized with the audio-recording of the speaker (recorded presentation), PDF files of the slides, and audio only (mp3) as noted.

Smoke control systems require coordinated integration between the buildings fire alarm system and its mechanical equipment controls to provide the intended life safety functions. Some building owners view smoke control systems as an unavoidable cost. This seminar explains how smoke control systems can support a building owners sustainability goals. Presentations describe how different choices can lead to more sustainable smoke control system designs, and how operation of a smoke control system minimizes the environmental impact during a fire emergency. Case studies are presented showing how smoke control systems helped achieve LEED innovation credits and LEED energy usage credits.
