Event Type: Seminar
21 May 2026 18:00 to 19:00
Webinar
This presentation explores the critical intersection between mechanical system design and fire safety engineering, framing life safety as a dynamic extension of traditional mechanical systems. Instead of treating fire safety as a secondary building constraint, we examine it as a high-performance requirement where HVAC, ventilation, and suppression systems become the primary tools for protecting life.
