8. FeuerTRUTZ Network Fachbauleitung Brandschutz - mit E-Book
The construction management and site supervision in fire protection is responsible for ensuring the implementation of the fire protection concept and monitors compliance with legal regulations during the construction phase. The multitude of different regulations and the large number of construction products and methods continuously increase the demands on construction management. The author provides you with a compact and practical guide for construction management in fire protection. The content is divided into four essential components: The first part deals with clearly defining the scope of services, the second part addresses the coordination of interfaces among the various trades, and the third part focuses on the concurrent construction supervision of fire protection. In the fourth part, the author explains how to handle deviations. The topic of fire protection on the construction site and the commissioning of the project is also discussed. The specialist book informs - in addition to overarching topics - about the classification of building materials for individual components and breakthrough planning, as well as the complexity of coordination in exemplary detail constructions. Case studies and checklists facilitate coordination and monitoring of the project and provide security for the individual construction phases. In the second edition, the topics of ventilation ducts and facades have been added to interface coordination. Also new is the important area of construction phase concepts and partial commissioning. Since the construction phases are not part of a fire protection concept, a separate proof of compliance is required during construction supervision.
