FT 701(A) Structures Behavior Under Fire Course Contents:

Unit I Principles of fire, mechanism & mode of fire spread in a building, development & growth of fire, Fully, developed fire, flash over, fire hazardous properties of solids, liquid, gaseous & volatile fluids, Time temperature grading curves, Heat balance for an enclosure during a fire, Fire severity & factors controlling fire severity, thermal properties of wall fixtures & geometrical properties of a room compartment, Thermal insulation heat transfer & radiation, calculation of fire resistance of a compartment, fire spread within, outside and between the buildings due to Propagation of heat, Flames
outside buildings, Reduction of risk of fires Explosions.

Unit II Effect of fire, Natural ventilation, Smoke movement in buildings, smoke moment in tall buildings, stack effect, wind effects, influence of openings in tall buildings, smoke shaft, smoke control during building design, Control of smoke spread, Mechanical ventilation, pressurization system & their types, Design of smoke control pressurization system for a building.

Unit III Fire protection to buildings, Building considered as whole, Fire planning & design, confinement of fire site planning access to fire fighting appliances, Exposure hazard, severity of exposure, its classification and factors affecting severity of exposure, Contribution of external walls & roof covering, Aspects of internal planning, reduction of fire spread, Concept of compartments & types, Construction of compartments, space and circulation, Principles and types of Fire & roof venting, Effect of wind on roof vent, Industrial building ventilation.
