- Abstract
- This paper discusses fire safety inspection and testing procedures for air moving systems. These systems include heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems; zoned smoke control systems; and pressurized stairwells. The detailed methods for inspection and testing presented in the appendices are initial efforts in the evolution of such methodology and it is anticipated that users will modify them to suit their needs.
