On July 23, 2 p.m. EDT, our own Jack Robbins will be conducting a webinar “Smoke Containment Strategies for Elevator Hoistways and Lobbies” as part of AEC Daily’s Continuing Education series. We invite you to attend and to invite anyone you know who might be interested.
Here is the webinar description: The spread of smoke in mid- and high-rise building fires is recognized as a major threat to the safety of the building occupants and responding fire personnel and the effectiveness of firefighting operations. This course explains how smoke migrates in a multi-story building fire and discusses how building codes have evolved to address this danger and why they mandate smoke containment in specific areas of a structure.
Product applications and assemblies designed to meet building code requirements and limit vertical smoke migration via elevator hoistways and lobbies are examined.
There is a combination sales training and installation class coming up the end of this month, July 28 – 30. Also, our next installation seminars will be Aug. 24 & 25, and Aug. 31 & Sept. 1. To accommodate safe physical distancing, the installment classes are now broken into two sessions of six people each.
