The partnership between Trinity Fire Partners and Life Safety Consortium will help promote safety awareness under codes NFPA 80 and NFPA 101 to various industries.
NFPA 80 is the standard that regulates the installation and maintenance of assemblies and devices used to protect openings in walls, floors, and ceilings against the spread of fire and smoke within, into, or out of buildings.
NFPA 101, Life Safety Code, provides strategies to protect people based on building construction, protection, and occupancy features that minimize the effects of fire and related hazards.
