As specialists in life safety and security systems, our qualified design team can offer training and design support to consultant engineers and specifiers of life safety and security systems.
In any profession, regular development activities are an essential way of keeping your skills and knowledge up to date. Design support services offered by Diamond Systems are aimed at those involved in the design of security and fire detection systems, including Consultant Engineers, Architects and Specifiers. The training will also benefit professionals who need to understand the design requirements of these systems, including building control officers, fire prevention officers, fire safety personnel, fire risk assessors, and local authorities.
Our courses take the form of a 1 hour presentation, in which delegates are provided with an overview of key design considerations and an update on any recent changes to the Codes of Practice.
In addition to CPD training sessions, Diamond Systems can also provide project-specific design support to consultant engineers and design teams. Our experienced design specialists can assist with the interpretation of relevant standards, system selection, device siting strategies and practical installation considerations to help ensure that designs are both compliant and deliverable in practice. This collaborative approach can help reduce redesign during construction, minimise installation issues and support the successful delivery of life safety and security systems.
