- Abstract
- The principal purpose of this project was to gather information regarding fire alarm systems and handicapped persons and to provide the basis for further activity by the Board. This report presents a fairly detailed description of alarm systems, their components, and their functions within a life safety system as a background for those who are not familiar with the field.
