For opinions that hold up in
court, insist on NFPA 921.
NFPA 921 is the yardstick that the courts apply to
determine if expert testimony will be used or excluded.
In a major rewrite to Chapter 18, the 2011 NFPA 921 emphasizes a scientifc methodol-
ogy to follow in determining fre cause, which will help fre investigators avoid inappropriate
use of the process of elimination. The Daubert ruling put the onus on the judge to be the
gatekeeper of expert testimony, and this edition of NFPA 921 continues to raise the bar of
professionalism for the fre investigation community.

Credibility. Your work demands it and todays
re investigation authority delivers!
Up-to-date with recent court cases, scientifc data, and
trends, the 2011 edition of NFPA 921: Guide for Fire
& Explosion Investigations presents state-of-the-art
investigation protocols that help you excel on the job.
Major revisions give fre investigators, litigators, and
insurance professionals more comprehensive and
effective guidance for todays demands.
Dont leave your ndings open to challenge. Use
scientic methodology to protect your work.
Failing to follow NFPA 921 is the same as asking the
court to exclude your testimony, says John Lentini, CFI,
CFEI, D-ABC of Scientifc Fire Analysis LLC in Big Pine
Key, Florida. In response to court decisions, the 2011
NFPA 921 goes further to prepare fre investigators to
render accurate opinions based on approved methods.
n An all-new section on Report Review Procedure in
Chapter 4 outlines the complete review process in fire
investigation and discusses peer vs. technical review.
n Rewritten Chapter 18, Cause helps ensure fire investi-
gators use scientific methodology when developing
hypotheses, to avoid Daubert challenges resulting from
the absence of supportive evidence, commonly known
as negative corpus.
Make sure youre working with the latest
concepts based on re experience, including:
n Revised Chapter 21, Explosions includes a critical
update of the science and technology affiliated with
explosions, as well as new illustrations and photo-
graphs from major incidents.
n Rewritten Chapter 23, Fire Deaths and Injuries
explains how medical reports on blood tests and tissue
samples can help investigators determine fire origin
and cause. Learn when to request toxicology reports
and how to interpret findings.
n Chapter 25, Motor Vehicle Fires introduces substan-
tially expanded sections covering recreational vehicles
and agricultural equipment. Only the 2011 NFPA 921
has complete data on all types of vehicles, including
electric/hybrids.
n Chapter 26, Wildfires is revised and loaded with new
visuals to assist personnel charged with investigations
involving this growing fire problem.

Save lives. Trust sprinkler
jobs to the 2010 NFPA 13.
NFPA 13 is absolutely #1
Sprinkler protection is so important in the reduction of fre
exposure. We use NFPA 13 for all our accountsfor new
construction when we provide recommendations for densities
and area of application, and for identifying the adequacy of
fre protection for the buildings we currently insure.

Use this comprehensive safety standard to
install sprinklers correctly and reduce re loss.
Protect people and property with the 2010 edition of
NFPA 13: Installation of Sprinkler Systemstodays
industry source for requirements involving sprinkler
system design, installation, and acceptance testing;
hanging and bracing systems, underground piping,
and seismic protection. Make it part of your tools of
the trade and gain the knowledge you need to ensure
that sprinkler systems remain fully effective in containing
or extinguishing fres and protecting lives and property.
First-time provisions for special storage
arrangements address unique re safety needs.
Fire testing and studies performed by the Fire Protection
Research Foundation form the basis for added criteria in
NFPA 13s expanded Chapter 20 concerning protection
of three new special storage arrangements:
n Carton records storage with catwalk access
n Compact shelving of commodities such as paper files,
magazines, and booksno more than 5% plastics and
up to 8 ft. high
n High-bay records storage
The Standard also introduces a method to calculate rack
shelf area that takes the placement of loads into consider-
ation. As a result, shelving material that was previously
classifed as open could be calculated as solid shelf
depending on whether loads block openings that serve
as fue spaces.
Keep systems in line with SEI/ASCE 7s
all-important seismic protection criteria.
Compliance with seismic protection criteria is a critical
issue and correlation with SEI/ASCE 7: Minimum Design
Loads for Buildings and Other Structures is essential.
Thats why the 2010 NFPA 13 adopts the SEI/ASCE 7
approach for load calculations, and includes an annex
to describe this process. In recognition of the wide range
of pipe materials used in systems, youll also fnd zone-
of-infuence tables for Schedule 5 steel pipe, CPVC, and
Type M copper tube.
Additional technical changes help you respond
to safety issues and improve usability.

Keep pace with added 2011 safeguards that
raise condence in every re protection plan.
Sprinkler systems can reduce the average property loss
by nearly 70% in the event of a fre. However, improper
maintenance can result in less sprinkler effectiveness
or even catastrophic system failure. The 2011 NFPA 25:
Inspection, Testing, and Maintenance of Water-Based
Fire Protection Systems provides new criteria to help
maintenance professionals, inspectors, and building
owners keep systems in top working order.
Continuous maintenance is so vital to reliability
and performance, NFPA 13 requires installers to
leave a copy of NFPA 25 with property owners.
Proper design, installation, and acceptance testing of
sprinklers are only the beginning. Systems have to be
ready to respond every hour of every day, so they have
to be maintained all the time. Thats why every building
owner needs the 2011 NFPA 25. Adopted by jurisdic-
tions nationwide, this essential Standard provides the
most complete and up-to-date inspection, testing, and
maintenance rules for fre sprinkler systems, standpipe
and hose systems, fre pumps, fre service piping and
appurtenances, foam-water, fxed water spray, water
storage tanks, and valves. A revised Chapter One clarifes
the role NFPA 25 plays in a building fre protection plan.
NFPA 25 governs impairment handling and reporting
so youre ready to troubleshoot and resolve issues.
Theres also a fexible means of compliance for designers
and owners. Previous editions of NFPA 25 introduced
practical guidance on how to implement and monitor
a performance-based process, subject to AHJ approval.
New testing schedules and a better way to
prioritize repairs take protection to a new level.
n New terms define critical deficiencies and
noncritical deficiencies, so maintainers and owners
can determine corrective actions and prioritize repairs
based on the impact on system operation.
n Updated testing frequencies are based on the growing
database of inspection, testing, and maintenance
records. Learn how to maximize time and efficiency
without compromising sprinkler reliability!

NFPA 72 presents a common
backbone for signaling systems:
The 2010 NFPA 72 has grown to include new requirements for
emergency communications, including mass notifcation. People
can look to NFPA 72 to give them direction on how to install these
systems and to set up a common backbone on how these systems
should be used.

including added rules for high-power speaker arrays
n Distributed recipient MNS to communicate with
targeted individuals or groups using methods such as
reverse 911, email, or other directed communications
n Two-way radio enhancement systems to ensure fire
fighters and responders have adequate radio coverage
n Two-way emergency communications systems for
areas of refuge
Keep pace with other major industry
developments and technical changes.
Make sure youre working with the latest provisions on:
n Voice intelligibilityRevised installation and testing
provisions plus an Annex with testing guidance
n Smoke detector spacing and placementUpdated
criteria for both level and sloped joist and beamed
ceiling applications
n Signaling for the deaf and hard of hearing

NFPA 654: Prevention of Fire and Dust
Explosions from the Manufacturing, Processing,
and Handling of Combustible Particulate Solids
LEARN FROM THE EXPERTS ABOUT DUST EXPLOSION
HAZARDSRegister for NFPAs Dust Explosion Hazards
Seminar at nfpatraining.org/seminars
Use NFPA 654 to reduce
re and explosion risks.
Follow the gold standard for protecting lives and
property around combustible dust hazards.
Tragic experiences in the United States in a number of
industries attest to the risk of fre and explosion where
combustible particulate solids or hybrid mixtures are
manufactured, processed, blended, pneumatically conveyed,
repackaged, or handled. In fact, according to the U.S.
Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board (CSB)
there were more than 280 dust explosions from 1980 to
2005, resulting in 199 deaths and 718 injuries.
Apply NFPA 654s effective provisions to identify
dust hazards and establish control measures.
OSHAs Combustible Dust National Emphasis Program
(NEP) indicates that combustible dust safety inspections are
on the rise in federal and state jurisdictions, and OSHAs
compliance inspectors currently rely on NFPA 654 for
mitigation strategies. The Standard provides fundamental,
industry-recognized safety practices for:
n Facility and Systems Design
n Process Equipment
n Fugitive Dust Control and Housekeeping
n Ignition Sources
n Fire Protection
n Training and Procedures
n Inspection and Maintenance
n Annexes, including guidance on the application of area
electrical classification for various dust accumulation levels
Safeguard your employees and pass inspections.
NFPA 654 provides a broad range of industries with a model
for dust hazard assessment and controland there is a
significant fiduciary penalty for the presence of dust hazards
in any facility. Apply NFPA 654s rules, including its perfor-
mance-based option, to control dust explosion hazards
responsibly and avoid risks. (Softbound, 43 pp., 2006)
This vital safety standard is:
n NFPAs principal document on dust hazards
n Referenced by OSHAs Combustible Dust
National Emphasis Program for dust hazard
mitigation strategies
n Widely referenced by jurisdictions, companies,
and insurance entities across the U.S. and
around the globe
OSHAs NEP for combustible dust
hazards signals greater emphasis.
NFPA 654 is the document OSHA inspectors point
to for mitigation once dust hazards are identied.
Ignition source control alone is not enoughfor
housekeeping and other practices that protect
employees and your facility, make sure youre
informed and protected with NFPA 654 and the
new NFPA Guide to Combustible Dust.

2012 NFPA 3: Commissioning and Integrated
Testing of Fire Protection and Life Safety Systems
NFPA 3 makes system
commissioning and
integrated testing clear.
Developed in response to a request from the National
Institute of Building Sciences (NIBS), landmark new
NFPA 3: Commissioning and Integrated Testing of Fire
Protection and Life Safety Systems outlines a process for
the commissioning and integrated testing of interconnected
safety systems. This important new document is a break-
through in building safetyoffering building owners,
designers, and AHJs a reliable way to verify that active
and passive systems are optimized to function as intended.
NFPA 3 encompasses procedures, methods,
responsibilities, and documentation.
Adaptable for all types of systemsfre protection
suppression and control, fre alarm, emergency communi-
cations, smoke control, power, fre doors, commercial
cooking operations, elevators, and moreNFPA 3
spells out:
n Qualifications of commissioning team members such
as job titles and necessary skill sets
n Thirteen categories for a commissioning team appropri-
ate to the project size and scope
n Guidelines for an integrated testing plan developed
by an integrated testing agent
n Direction for retro-commissioning (RCx) and
re-commissioning (Re-Cx) of existing buildings to
verify system performance and interconnectivity
n Commissioning forms and reports that provide a
baseline for documentation
n Sample reports and commissioning documentation
Be condent in your role, and be sure building
systems are ready for action.
NFPA 3 provides consensus-based, practical guidance for
engineers, contractors, owners, insurance representatives,
and anyone responsible for public safety or involved in
system commissioning or integrated testing. Order your
copy of this important frst edition now. (Softbound,
52 pp., 2012)
All-new NFPA 3 bridges a
critical gap in building safety.
Lack of accountability for the commissioning of fre
protection and life safety systems jeopardizes
system functionalityand causes con ficts between
designers, contractors, owners, and AHJs. NFPA 3
resolves these issues with a complete commission-
ing program for system start-up and testing.
A commissioning expert says:
NFPA 3 gives a building owner an opportunity to take a
new building out for a shakedown cruise...to see that all
the complex systems operate in an integrated fashion.

2012 NFPA 54:
National Fuel
Gas Code
The 2012 NFPA 54
reduces re and
explosion risks.
Updated for the techniques, materials,
developments, and construction practices
in use today, the 2012 NFPA 54: National
Fuel Gas Code provides revised, industry-
accepted guidance for the safe installation
and operation of gas piping systems, appli-
ances, equipment, and accessories.
New indoor purging rules address
recommendations by the U.S. Chemical
Safety Board (CSB).
In response to a devastating gas piping purging
accident, NFPA 54 received an emergency
Tentative Interim Amendment to the purging
requirements in the 2009 Code. With minor
editorial changes, the 2012 NFPA 54 incorpo-
rates these critical rules specifying mandatory use
of combustible gas indicators and detectors so
employers can identify the presence of fuel gas.
Other major changes improve safety
and facilitate Code application:
n New bonding clamp location for CSST
clarifies bonding requirements added in the
2009 edition.
n Added overpressure protection for 2 psi
(14 kPa) regulators improves convenience
for designers and installers at industrial sites.
n Two new tables make it easier to size schedule
40 steel pipe for higher pressure drops in
natural gas service.
n Expanded sizing tables are provided for
natural gas and propane polyethylene.
Annexes provide additional information:
n Details on coordinating of appliance and
equipment design, construction, and maintenance
including a design and construction checklist
n Steps on checking for leakage and suggested
emergency procedures for gas leaks
Never underestimate fuel gas dangers.
If your job involves any aspect of fuel gas safety, the
latest edition of NFPA 54 is essential. (Softbound,
163 pp., 2012)

installations with the 2011 NFPA 58.
Recently revised to refect the latest safety practices,
feld experience, and industry advances, the 2011
NFPA 58: Liquefed Petroleum Gas Code provides
accepted criteria for all aspects of the safe design,
construction, installation and operation of the full
range of LP-Gas piping, equipment, and venting,
along with highway transportation of LP-Gas.
New rule for cathodic protection for under-
ground tanks preserves structural integrity.
Corrosion in steel containers buried underground
can create pits or holes that can lead to leaks,
releasing propane into the ground. To prevent
this dangerous condition from occurring, the
2011 NFPA 58 requires ASME containers to
have a cathodic protection system installed and
periodically monitored to maintain expected
performance standards.
Other 2011 changes help prevent failures,
leaks, tampering, res, and explosions:
n Prohibition against using former rail car tanks
n Rules to ensure adequate training for installers
or handlers of propane tanks and piping material
n Revised definitions for better understanding,
application, and enforcement of requirements
Base your decisions on the hazard knowledge
and strategies in the industry benchmark.
If your work involves LP-Gas, stay competitive and
informed with the 2011 NFPA 58, the industrys

ers, engineers, AHJs, inspectors, facility owners, and

The 2012 NFPA 99s groundbreaking changes
and expanded coverage increase protection
in all types of health care occupancies.
In response to an increasingly decentralized health
care system, a growing array of high-tech procedures,
and new security demands, the 2012 NFPA 99 has
reinvented itself to refect a new environment where
it is the risk that a procedure poses to patients and
staff, not the location where it is conducted, that
defnes safety guidelines. Its new titleHealth Care
Facilities Codesignifes that it is rewritten to
make performance criteria for health care facilities
more enforceable and adoptable.
Totally reorganized, this new benchmark
boosts safety with major changes such as:
n A new risk-based framework
n A fully updated Chapter 5, Gas and Vacuum
Systems, including additional maintenance
requirements
n New chapters on security, fire protection, and
information technology
n Operating rooms are considered a wet location
unless a risk assessment determines otherwise.
Move up to a new level of protection and keep facilities
up-to-code and patients and staff safe.
The 2012 NFPA 99 is essential for engineers, facility managers...AHJs...
plumbers...gas and vacuum system installers, designers, and verifers...
security personnel...insurance companies...and manufacturers. Order

Innovative Code changes raise
occupant safety to a new level!
1.800.344.3555
|
Responsive. Progressive. Dynamic. The 2012
Life Safety Code takes another leap forward.
Nontraditional use of buildings...cutting-edge designs...
new technologies, materials, and construction practices.
As the built environment and societal expectations
change, so do the challenges to protect people from fre
and related hazards. Fully updated to refect the latest
industry developments and lessons learned, the 2012
NFPA 101
is the new benchmark for life safety.

Follow the latest requirements to protect lives
in all types of occupanciesassembly, health
care, residential, industrial, and more!
NFPA 101 is the most widely used source for strategies
for occupant safety throughout the life cycle of a build-
ing. Unique in the feld, it is the only document that
addresses life safety in both new and existing structures.
From egress, sprinklers, and alarms to emergency
lighting, smoke barriers, and special hazard protection,
the LSC covers it.
Across-the-board safety rules for new high-rises
promote consistency in protection.
For the frst time, all new high-rise buildings must meet
the requirements of the high-rise building package in
Chapter 11. The integral provisions include sprinklers,
standpipes, voice/alarm communication, emergency
lighting and standby power, emergency command center,
and emergency plans. Previous Code editions allowed
specifc occupancies to decide which aspects of the
package should be applied at particular facilities. This
important change will achieve consistency in the level of
occupant protection regardless of whether it is an offce
building, factory, or hospital.
2012 health care occupancy rules foster a
more comfortable, home-like environment.
Developed in response to the cultural change move-
ment in the health care industry, these 2012 Life Safety
Code
provisions are intended to make patients and

residents feel more at home and in control of their
schedules and activities:
n Certain items, including fixed furniture and wheeled
equipment, can now be placed in corridors.
n Occupant-use kitchens can open to corridors or
common spaces, permitting more socialization.
n Increased quantities of decorations on walls in
occupant rooms and common areas are allowed.
As societys needs evolve, so does the Life Safety Code. Stay up-to-date
and be ready to apply important innovations in the 2012 Code involving
door locking, suite arrangements, and new criteria for home-like settings
in long-term care facilities that respond to the culture change movement
within the health care industry. New and revised requirements related to
furniture in corridors, residential kitchens, and wall decorations help create
a less institutional atmosphere, increased socialization, and a greater
sense of autonomy for residents, resulting in an improved quality of life
without sacrifcing life safety protections.
2012 NFPA 101 revisions advance culture
change in health care.

evacuation
n Relaxation of the means of egress

An industry expert says...

surrounding building design and
construction, and as a result, reaffrms
its standing as the most comprehensive
and up to date life safety code ever
published, says Russ Leavitt, Execu-
tive Chairman, Telgian Corporation,
Tempe, AZ.
