non-profit organization that promotes safety standards, education,
training, and advocacy on fire and electrical-related hazards.
Established in 1896 as a way to standardize the use of fire
sprinkler systems, and the scope grew to include building design,
rescue response, electrical codes and other safety concerns

14
Why have a Fire Detection and Alarm System?
1. To provide for the safety of occupants in buildings,

2. To provide fire department with early notification of a fire in a
building and to direct them to the area of risk,
3. To reduce loss of property,
4. To reduce building damage,
5. To reduce the amount of business lost, and
6. Minimize risk to the public who attend unfamiliar properties.
15
Risk Assessment
The first step in the design process is the risk assessment.

It underpins the whole system strategy and therefore could be
argued as being the most important stage.
Risk assessment is the process of considering each part

of a building from the point of view of what fire hazards exist within
an area and what would happen in the event of fire or if explosion
were to occur.
16
Design Process
A fire alarm system should be designed to provide early

detection and warning of a fire. The designer must consider the
size, complexity and use of the building, and the degree of detection
and warning desired.
17
Design Process
Before looking at the details of the alarm system, it is

necessary to understand some of the concepts that are used to
assist the system designer. Buildings are divided up into sections in
three ways as far as fire safety engineering is concerned:
1. fire compartments,
2. detection zones and
3. alarm zones.
18
Design Process
Fire Compartments
A fire compartment
is a part of a building that is
separated from the rest of the
building by a fire resistant
structure so as to limit the
spread of fire within the
building.
19
Design Process
Detection Zones
Fire detection zones

are essentially a convenient way
of dividing up a building to assist
in quickly locating the position of a
fire. The zone boundaries are not
physical features of the building,
although it is normal to make the
zone boundary coincide with
walls, floors and specifically fire
compartments. 20
Design Process
Some specific recommendations with respect to detection zones are:
1. Zones should be restricted to single floors, except where the total

floor area of a building is less than 3000 ft².
2. Voids above or below the floor area of a room may be included in the
same zone as the room so long as they are both in the same fire
compartment.
3. Zones should not be larger than 20,000 ft² except for manual
systems in single storey open plan buildings, such as a warehouse,
where up to 100,000 ft² is allowed.
21
Design Process
Some specific recommendations with respect to detection zones are:
4. Fire detectors in an enclosed stairwell, lift shaft or the like should be

considered as a separate zone.
5. The search distance within a zone should be less than 300 ft in any
direction.
6. Zones should not cross fire compartments, a fire compartment can
contain several zones but a zone should not contain more than one
fire compartment.
22
Design Process
Alarm Zone
Alarm zones are only needed

in buildings where operation of the
alarms needs to be different in certain
parts of the buildings. If the only
requirement is to activate all the alarm
sounders to provide a single common
evacuate signal once a fire is
detected, then alarm zones are not
needed as the whole building is
considered one alarm zone. 23
Design Process
Some specific recommendations with respect to Alarm zones are:
1. The boundaries of all alarm zones should comprise fire-resisting

construction.
2. Signal overlap between alarm zones should not cause confusion.
3. The same alarm and alert signals should be used throughout a
building.
4. A detection zone must not contain multiple alarm zones, alarm and
detection zone boundaries should coincide. An alarm zone may
contain multiple detection zones.
24
Relevant Standards
The design, installation and testing of the fire detection and

alarm system shall comply with all state and local codes with no
exception.
Fire alarm system requirements are found in:
1. NFPA 72, National Fire Alarm Code

2. NFPA 101, Life Safety Code
3. National Building Code
4. Fire Code
25
Components of FDAS
1. Control Unit (FACP)

2. Manually activated
signaling boxes
3. Fire detectors
4. Alarm devices
5. Life Safety System
Interfaces
26
Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP)
The Fire Alarm Control

Panel (FACP) is the "brain" of the fire
detection and alarm system. It is
responsible for monitoring the various
alarm "input" devices such as manual
and automatic detection components,
and then activating alarm "output"
devices such as horns, bells, warning
lights, emergency telephone dialers,
and building controls.
27
Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP)
There are three main control

panel arrangements:
1. Conventional System
2. Addressable System
3. Semi-Addressable System
28
Conventional Fire Detection and Alarm System
In a conventional
system, one or more circuits
are routed through the
protected space or building.
Along each circuit, one or more
detection devices are placed.
29
Addressable Fire Detection and Alarm System
Addressable systems
represent the current state-of-
the-art in fire detection and
alarm technology. Each
intelligent fire alarm system is a
small computer overseeing and
operating a series of input and
output devices. In an
addressable system, each
initiating device is given a
specific identification or
"address". 30
Semi-Addressable Fire Detection and Alarm System
Semi-Addressable
System is the hybrid of
Conventional and Addressable
in one system.
31
Disadvantages of Conventional System
• Conventional systems can be expensive to install because of the

extensive amounts of wire that are necessary to accurately monitor
initiating devices
• Each detection device may require some form of operational test to
verify it is in working condition. Smoke detectors must be
periodically removed, cleaned, and recalibrated to prevent
improper operation.
• With a conventional system, there is no accurate way of
determining which detectors are in need of servicing.
• If a fault occurs, the "trouble" indication only states that the circuit
has failed, but does not specifically state where the problem is
32
occurring
Advantages of Addressable System
• Reduces the probability of False Alarm

• Enhanced Maintenance and Locating of Faults/Fire
• Ease of Modification
33
Initiating Devices
Smoke Detector
These devices are

designed to identify a fire
while in its moldering or early
flame stages.
34
Initiating Devices
Heat Detector
Heat detectors warn of

fire when the temperature in the
area reaches a certain level.
Placed in areas where smoke
detectors are not applicable such
as kitchens, parking, etc.
35
Initiating Devices
Beam Detector
Provide a cost effective

method of covering wide open plan
areas such as galleries and atria.
This detector consists of two
components, a light transmitter
and a receiver, that are mounted
at some distance up to 300 ft (100
m) apart.
36
Initiating Devices
Aspirating Smoke Detector
Air aspirating detectors are

extremely sensitive and are typically
the fastest responding automatic
detection method. This type of system
aspirates the smoke from various
locations into a tube where the smoke
is analyzed electro-optically by a line
of sight transmitter-receiver set.
37
Initiating Devices
Aspirating Smoke Detector
Aspirating systems should

be specified where protection is
required in areas such as cold
stores or areas where a very fast
response to fire is needed, and
while each sense point can be
considered a smoke detector
38
Initiating Devices
Flame Detector
The Optical detector is an

electronic device containing electro-
optical sensors that are sensitive to
electromagnetic radiation in the UV,
VIS, IR spectral bands. The Optical
detector "sees" the fire by detecting
the electromagnetic radiation
emitted by the combustion products
39
Initiating Devices
Flame Detector
Common uses include

locomotive and aircraft maintenance
facilities, refineries and fuel loading
platforms, and mines.
40
Detectors Sub-Classification
To further break down the detector groupings, there are
two sub-groups known as "Spot type" and "Line type" initiating
devices. The NFPA definitions of Spot and Line type are as follows:
Spot type device - A device in which the detecting element is

concentrated at a particular location. Spot type detectors have a
maximum theoretical rated coverage of 900 sq. ft (30 ft x 30 ft) in
large open rooms.
Line type device - A device in which detection is continuous along

a path. The maximum theoretical rated coverage area for the
projected beam detector can be as large 20,000 sq. ft. 41
Positioning of Smoke and Heat Detector
The number of heat and/or
smoke detectors required in a given
room will depend on the area and
geometry of the room and the
limitations of the equipment.
For general areas the
spacing between any point in a
protected area and the detector
nearest to that point should not
exceed 7.5 m for a smoke detector
and 5.3 m for a heat detector.
42
In order to ensure that coverage is provided into the corners
of rooms and to ensure that there is no gap at the junction point of
multiple detectors, spacing have to be reduced.
43
To ensure complete coverage for square layouts, spacing
between detectors and walls should be reduced to 5 m for a smoke
detector and 3.5 m for a heat detector.
44
To ensure complete coverage, spacing between detectors
should be reduced to 10 m between smoke detectors and 7 m
between heat detectors.
45
For corridors less than 2 m wide, only the center line need
be considered, therefore it is not necessary to reduce detector
spacing in order to provide complete coverage. Therefore for smoke
detectors spacing becomes 7.5 m from a wall and 15 m between
detectors. For heat detectors, the spacing becomes 5.3 m to a wall
and 10.6 m between detectors.
46
Initiating Devices
Manual Call Point
Manual call points or pull

stations allow building occupants to
signal that a fire has been observed
as they leave a building. The
general design philosophy is to
place stations within reach along
paths of escape.
47
General Guidelines on the Manual Call points
1. The height of the manual fire alarm boxes shall be a minimum of
42 inches (1067mm) and a maximum of 54 inches (1372 mm)
measured vertically, from the floor level to the activating handle or
lever of the box. Manual fire alarm boxes shall be red in color.
2. Manual call points should be located on escape routes, at all exits
from each floor at the stair and corridors.
3. Manual fire alarm boxes should be located not more than 5 feet
(1524mm) from the entrance to each exit.
4. Manual call points should be located at each door opening to the
exterior of the building.
48
General Guidelines on the Manual Call points
5. Manual call points should be located at the exit from each High-
Hazard Occupancy
6. Manual pull stations should be located so that the travel distance
to any station from any point in the building does not exceed 200
feet.
7. Manual fire alarm boxes should be located in each story including
basements.
8. All manual pull stations should be located to be readily accessible,
unobstructed, and visible.
9. For general applications, call points should be located such that
no one needs to travel more than 45 m to reach the nearest call
point. 49
Notification Devices
Upon receiving an alarm notification,

the FACP must now alert someone that an
emergency is underway. Fire alarm systems
utilize a variety of devices to alert building
occupants and fire authorities within the
protected area as well as outside that an
event or fault has occurred. These devices
include:
1. Audible alarms (horns, bells, buzzers, etc.)

2. Visual alarms (strobes, etc.)
3. Voice Evacuation systems 50
Audible Alarms
Sound levels should

generally be 65dBA or 5dBA above
persistent background noise
levels. This may be reduced to
60dBA in rooms smaller than 600 ft2,
in stairwells or in specific limited
points of the building.
51
In addition to these general requirements the following

specific requirements should also be noted:
1. A level of at least 75dBA at the bed head is required to wake

sleeping occupants.
2. At least one sounder is required per fire compartment.
3. All of the sounders utilized in a building should emit a similar
noise.
52
Voice Notification
Voice systems provide an effective means

of emergency notification, because:
1. Voice messages provide more
information than a tone or bell
2. Effective in causing a desired reaction
from occupants
3. Reduce panic during emergencies
4. Accommodates multiple threats (fire,
security, bio, weather)
53
Emergency Controls
Emergency Shutdown and Diagnostic Functions
Fire alarm systems can be designed to control the

operation of the building service equipment to minimize the spread
of fire and smoke.
54
Emergency Controls

• HVAC Shutdown
• Door Holders
• Elevator Recall
• Water Flow Detectors
• Activating smoke extract
• Activating discharge of fire extinguishing systems
• Fire Pump Supervision
• High/Low Air Pressure Supervision

55
Supplementary Equipment
Power Units
The fire alarm system shall be provided with a reliable

primary and secondary power supply. Both shall be reliable and
have adequate capacity for the application in accordance with
NFPA 72
56
Supplementary Equipment
Power Units
The secondary power supply must supply energy to the
system within 30 seconds and can be:
1. Battery
2. Emergency generator
The secondary power supply shall have sufficient capacity

to operate a local, central station or proprietary system for 24
hours under maximum load and then, at the end of that period,
operate all alarm modification appliances used for evacuation or to
direct aid to the location of an emergency for 5 minutes.

Fiber Optics Linear Heat detection – AP Sensing
DTS utilizes the Raman effect to measure temperature. An

optical laser pulse sent through the fiber results in
some scattered light reflecting back to the transmitting
end, where it is analyzed. The intensity of the Raman
scattering is a measure of the temperature along the
fiber.
The position of the temperature reading is determined by
measuring the arrival timing of the returning light pulse
similar to a radar echo. 88
