Fire Safety for Very Tall Buildings Engineering Guide, Second Edition

Fire Safety for Very Tall Building Engineering Guide is the result of a collaborative effort by the Society of Fire Protection Engineers (SFPE) and International Code Council, Inc. (ICC) to address the complex fire protection challenges of very tall buildings.

The guide addresses the range of challenges specific to very tall buildings such as hazard risk, fire protection system reliability, emergency egress, smoke control, first responder considerations and many other important topics. It uses an integrated approach to fire protection and examines new and existing buildings.

Engineers, architects, building officials, contractors, and other professionals involved in the design, construction and administration of new or existing tall buildings will benefit from this guide.
