NFPA

NFPA 13R helps you design and install life-saving sprinkler systems in multiple-family dwellings -- to safeguard people and property from fire. The 2013 edition of NFPA 13R: Standard for the Installation of Sprinkler Systems in Low-Rise Residential Occupancies introduces a new title along with major updates reflecting industry developments. For effective and economical sprinkler system installation in multifamily occupancies -- such as apartment buildings and hotels -- buildings, designers, owners, and AHJs rely on NFPA 13R: Standard for the Installation of Sprinkler Systems in Low-Rise Residential Occupancies.

Do all you can to protect workers from electrical hazards. The 2012 edition of NFPA 70E: Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace® helps you reduce risks and avoid devastating electrical incidents that result in injuries, deaths, and OSHA violations. The 2012 NFPA 70E addresses real-world challenges with solutions -- such as a user-friendly hazard/risk classification table that includes more information to avoid oversights that could result in shock and arc-flash accidents. The Standard responds to industry needs with first-time coverage of direct current (dc) shock protection boundaries and hazard/risk categories for specific tasks. This edition also clarifies full-head protection against arc flash by eliminating the 2* task designation, and features updated rules for training and safety program audits.

Long considered the benchmark for automatic fire sprinkler systems, NFPA 13 presents consensus-based requirements for sprinkler system design approaches, installation, and component options. Compliance is essential to sprinkler performance, which in turn significantly reduces the risks of fire deaths and property loss. Chapter 20: Special Designs of Storage Protection presents requirements for the protection of three new special storage arrangements, including carton records storage with catwalk access, and high bay records storage.

Safe, efficient, code-compliant electrical installations are made simple with the latest publication of this widely popular resource. Like its highly successful previous editions, the NEC 2011 Handbook combines solid, thorough, research-based content with the tools you need to build an in-depth understanding of the most important topics.

Based on the 2017 National Electrical Code (NEC), the National Electrical Code Handbook clarifies concepts for a better understanding of the Code. It's a powerful communication tool that helps you explain the NEC to clients and others who might not have professional electrical training.
