01. INTRODUCTION

01 FIRE PROTECTION is a study and


practice of mitigating the unwanted
effects of potentially destructive fire.

02 FIRE PROTECTION SYSTEM includes


devices, wiring, equipment and
controls to detect fire or smoke, to
actuate signal, and to supperess the
fire or smoke.

Primary: To save lives


Secondary: To minimize interruptions
02. FIRE SCIENCE

presence of heat energy in which a
substance combines with oxygen in air
and the process is accompanied by
emission of energy in form of heat,
light and sound
