Abstract
This project outlines the innovative design of a fire detections training simulator. Fire protection systems are updated and changed rapidly as technology grows; training and guidelines for inspectors and safety professionals are crucial for the development of these systems. This project's purpose is to design a fire inspection simulator to enhance awareness of and training fire safety professionals in the workplace. This interactive system uses specific devices that are not only cost effective but are widely accepted and used in multiple industries. OSHA 1910 Subpart L and NFPA 101 were used with NFPA 72 to inform the design of this system. The training provided will allow instructors and safety professionals an opportunity to review current fire protection devices as well as keep up to date with the most used fire protection devices in manufacturing. The outcome is to have proficient trainees with a basic understanding of how systems are implemented, designed, and maintained. By creating this innovative training system, we will have a tool up to date in the modern era that can be used by safety professionals for years to come. Our system can guarantee that trained individuals will be able to improve their knowledge and refine the skills required to operate the various kinds of alarm system that they may encounter in the workplace.
