T
his has been quite a busy and productive three-month period in the life of our
Association. Some of the activity has been quite obvious to our members. For example
our Manitoba and Ontario Chapters recently presented well-attended day-long
Technical Seminars.
Our CFAA National office relocation has been completed and our staff members love the new
‘digs’.
Much also has happened on the educational front. One example is the complete up-date of the
Course 5 materials including a new Manual (now in optional three-ring format) along with
supporting materials such as study guides, assignments and exams. Colleges and our own
Distance Learning Program are now using the new materials.
But what is not yet obvious is the construction of a completely new CFAA web-site. Building
of the site has been on-going for over eight months and is now in the ‘tire-kicking’ phase. We
expect to bring it live in June. We are quite excited about the new site because it will be fully
interactive. It will be possible for you to go on-line and register for, and print tickets for, next
years Seminars across Canada. In addition, our Registered CFAA Technicians will be able
to renew their membership status on-line. Plus an easier-to-follow structure for all sorts of
industry news and information. Watch for it!!! Same address!!!
We are very pleased to carry an article relating to potential improvements to fire/life safety,
and possible technical up-grades to existing Fire Alarm Systems. This particular situation
is in a retail environment, however the discussion could as easily revolve around different
occupancies. In the course of our daily work, most of us relate directly to existing buildings
and the owner who feels that a system up-grade is not yet necessary. This article touches on
the several considerations involved in such an open discussion.
Please pay special attention to the Chapter News Section. You will read that our Manitoba
Chapter held a day-long Technical Seminar in Winnipeg on April 5th. And in May, our Ontario
Chapter presented their annual day-long Technical Seminar in Toronto.
We encourage you to become involved in the activities of your local Chapter.
Yours in Fire Safety,
Allen Hodgson, Editor-in-Chief

C
es trois derniers mois ont été très occupés et productifs dans la vie de notre
Association. Certaines des activités ont été très apparentes pour nos membres. Par
exemple, nos sections régionales du Manitoba et de l’Ontario ont récemment présenté
des séminaires techniques d’une journée qui ont attiré beaucoup de participants.
Le déménagement de notre bureau national ACAI est maintenant terminé, et les membres de
notre personnel adorent leur nouvel endroit.
Beaucoup de choses se sont également produites du côté de l’éducation. Par exemple, la mise à
jour complète du matériel entourant le Cours 5, notamment un nouveau manuel (maintenant
en format optionnel à trois anneaux) ainsi que le matériel de soutien, comme les guides
d’étude, les travaux et les examens. Les collèges et notre propre Programme de formation à
distance utilisent désormais le nouveau matériel.
Ce qui n’est pas encore évident est la construction du tout nouveau site Internet de l’ACAI. La
construction du site se poursuit depuis les huit derniers mois, et elle se trouve maintenant à
la phase du « fignolage ». Nous prévoyons le mettre en ligne au mois de juin. Nous sommes
très emballés par ce nouveau site, car il sera entièrement interactif. Il vous sera possible d’aller
en ligne et de vous inscrire aux séminaires de l’année prochaine partout au Canada, puis
d’imprimer les billets. Aussi, nos techniciens ACAI reconnus seront en mesure de renouveler
leur adhésion en ligne. Tout cela en plus d’une structure simple à suivre pour toutes sortes de
nouvelles et d’informations concernant l’industrie. Surveillez-le!!! Même adresse!!!
Nous sommes très heureux de présenter un article visant les améliorations potentielles à la
sécurité incendie et à la sécurité des personnes, et les mises à niveau possibles des systèmes
d’alarme incendie existants. Cette situation en particulier se présente dans un environnement
de vente au détail; toutefois, la discussion pourrait très bien se prêter à d’autres usages. Dans
le cours de nos tâches quotidiennes, la plupart d’entre nous travaillent directement dans les
bâtiments existants, avec le propriétaire qui ne sent pas qu’une mise à niveau du système est
nécessaire en ce moment. Cet article touche plusieurs considérations concernant une telle
discussion ouverte.
Veuillez porter une attention particulière à la Nouvelles des sections régionales. Vous noterez
que la section régionale du Manitoba a tenu un séminaire technique d’une journée à Winnipeg
le 5 avril. De plus, au mois de mai, notre section régionale de l’Ontario a présenté son séminaire
technique d’une journée à Toronto.
Nous vous encourageons à vous investir dans les activités de votre section locale.
En toute sécurité incendie,

Benefits of Fire Alarm
System Retrofit in a
Retail Environment
What benefits can retail facilities gain from
updating their Fire Alarm Systems?
therefore, creating a disruption to the business.
Imagine a false alarm on an important selling day!
A Fire Alarm System upgrade can improve areas
of detection, signalling, and off-site monitoring.
It reduces the risk of high maintenance costs and
disruption in operations. Older, legacy systems
are much more prone to incidents involving poor
detection, false alarms and excessive maintenance.
This is especially vital for single or multi-story
properties that have a large retail space and high
foot traffic. Retailers should engage fire and security
experts to ensure the fire alarm system has a positive
impact and is not an impediment to Risk and Crisis
Management plans.
A solution is to use the latest technology in
conventional duct smoke detectors with means of
notifying the Loss Prevention personnel when the
device is reaching the point of requiring service.
Another option is the use of intelligent duct smoke
detectors with multiple levels of service indicators
which are displayed at the system’s addressable fire
alarm control panel. These warnings allow for a nonemergency visit by a qualified fire alarm technician
before an emergency alarm situation occurs.
What potential impact can older legacy systems
have on a retail facility’s “bottom line”?
More than ever, retailers are focusing on security and
operating efficiency. Unfortunately, the fire alarm
may not receive the attention necessary to evaluate
its impact on the business’ Profit & Loss (P&L)
statement. Operating a legacy system for many years is
advantageous to controlling life-cycle costs; however,
investing in newer technology offers financial
benefits beyond just keeping a legacy fire protection
system active. A fire alarm retrofit improves areas of
detection, notification and monitoring; all providing
a positive contribution to a retail operation’s P&L.
Can you elaborate on the benefits of upgrading a
system’s detection?
One aspect of the fire alarm system that warrants
an update is duct smoke detection in the heating,
ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) system.
Conventional or intelligent duct smoke detectors
installed 10+ years ago are more susceptible to dust
that commonly accumulates in an HVAC system than
those on the market today. Without the advanced
warning provided by today’s technology, this leads
to an emergency condition on the fire alarm panel.
Local codes may require the facility to be evacuated;

C A NA D IA N F I R E A L A R M A S S O C IAT I O N
In addition to the advanced warning feature, sensing
technology has drastically improved over time to
reduce false alarms and increase speed of detection.
Upgrading legacy duct smoke detectors along with
a service agreement with a qualified fire alarm
company are the right steps in maintaining up-time
and reducing out-of-budget expenses.
What can a newer Fire Alarm System really offer?
As the need increases to communicate specific
instructions and capture the attention of building
occupants, voice evacuation systems are used as
part of fire alarm notification. Voice evacuation
systems have become more and more prevalent due to
changing fire alarm codes and the need to overcome
society’s desensitization to standard fire alarm horns.
Legacy systems are mainly horn-type notification,
which does not allow for specific messages to be
communicated.
As an integral part of a fire alarm system, a voice
evacuation system provides the functionality
of communicating either pre-recorded or live
instructions to occupants. It serves the purpose
of evacuation for a fire alarm while providing the
capability of specific, live voice messages. There are
advantages to using the digital voice evacuation
system versus a standard public address (PA) system
May 2011
By Richard Conner, Product Manager, NOTIFIER
for emergency communications, which include:
1) intelligibility of the announcement; and 2)
continuous supervision of the system to ensure it is
100% operational.
All of the above should provide enhanced occupant
safety, reduced fire-loss projections, and fewer
business interruptions caused by nuisance alarms
and maintenance problems.
You mentioned the monitoring of fire alarm systems
can be improved with new technology. How?
Altogether, a positive boost both to safety and to the
bottom line.
The ability to receive and review detailed emergency
information from the fire alarm systems in all
store locations is beneficial for Loss Prevention
professionals. Information from the individual
locations helps identify issues early and reduce the
loss side of the P&L equation. Traditional monitoring
included communications to an off-premises
Fire-Signal Receiving Station over phone lines.
Historically, this has been done with a digital alarm
communicator transmitter that may not easily lend
itself to simultaneous reporting to two locations.
A solution is an IP/GSM Communicator that
can provide detailed emergency information and
communicate over an existing TCP/IP (Internet) and
cell phone network to the Fire-Signal Receiving Station
and corporate office. Specific, timely information
regarding the status of the fire alarm system can be
transmitted to IP Receivers and individuals through
e-mail and text message alerts in both locations.
Moreover, the monthly cost of leasing two phone
lines or DVACS (digital voice access control system)
traditionally used for fire alarm communications with
a Fire Signal Receiving Station can be eliminated.
Increased performance and decreased monitoring
costs adds real value when considering a Fire Alarm
System retrofit.
What should we expect from a Fire Alarm System
retrofit program in a retail environment?
Enhanced automatic detection capabilities for early
warning, improved signalling capabilities for greater
occupant safety, and improved security of off-site
monitoring.
The Health & Safety Management Group is an authorized
provider of the C.F.A.A. “Fire Alarm Technology” program.
We offer this course, coast to coast, in a variery of formats,
including group sessions, public offerings, weekdays,
weekends, or other schedules to meet our client needs.
The five module program is designed to be completed in full
days consisting of 36 hours per module, leading to
certification as a “Fire Alarm Technician”.
Exemptions for Modules 2, 3 and 4 may be granted by the
C.F.A.A. if the proper qualifications are provided.

Avantages d’une mise à niveau du
réseau avertisseur d’incendie dans
un environnement de vente au détail
Quels avantages les installations de vente au détail
peuvent-elles tirer de la mise à niveau de leurs
réseaux avertisseurs d’incendie?
Pouvez-vous fournir plus de précision sur les
avantages de la mise à niveau de la détection d’un
système?
La mise à niveau d’un réseau avertisseur d’incendie
peut améliorer les zones de détection, la signalisation
et la surveillance hors site. Elle contribue à réduire les
coûts de maintenance élevés et limite l’interruption
des opérations. Les anciens systèmes sont beaucoup
plus sujets aux incidents impliquant une mauvaise
détection, aux fausses alarmes et à la maintenance
excessive. Cela est spécialement essentiel dans les
établissements à un étage et à plusieurs étages qui
off rent un vaste espace de vente au détail, où il y a
beaucoup de circulation. Les détaillants devraient
faire appel aux experts en matière d’incendie et de
sécurité afin de s’assurer que le réseau avertisseur
d’incendie est un élément positif, et ne représente pas
un obstacle aux plans de gestion des risques et des
crises.
Un aspect du réseau avertisseur d’incendie qui
justifie une mise à niveau est la détection de fumée
dans les conduits des installations de chauffage, des
systèmes de ventilation et de conditionnement d’air
(CVCA). Les détecteurs de fumée classiques ou
intelligents dans les conduits âgés de 10 ans et plus
sont plus susceptibles à la poussière qui s’accumule
habituellement dans les systèmes CVCA que ceux
offerts sur le marché aujourd’hui. Sans le signal
avancé fourni par la technologie d’aujourd’hui, cela
mène à un état d’urgence sur le panneau avertisseur
d’incendie. Les codes locaux peuvent exiger
l’évacuation de l’établissement, perturbant ainsi les
affaires du commerce. Imaginez une fausse alarme
lors d’une journée de vente importante!
Quelle est la répercussion possible des anciens
systèmes sur le « bénéfice net » d’un commerce de
détail?
Maintenant, plus que jamais, les détaillants
se concentrent sur la sécurité et l’efficacité de
l’exploitation.
Malheureusement,
l’attention
nécessaire n’est pas toujours portée sur le réseau
avertisseur d’incendie afin d’évaluer son impact
sur l’état des résultats de l’entreprise. L’exploitation
d’un ancien système pendant de nombreuses années
est avantageuse au contrôle des coûts du cycle de
vie; toutefois, le fait d’investir dans une technologie
plus récente off re des avantages financiers bien
supérieurs au fait de garder l’ancien réseau
avertisseur d’incendie actif. La mise à niveau d’un
réseau avertisseur d’incendie améliore les zones de
détection, la signalisation et la surveillance; tout cela
contribue de manière positive à l’état des résultats
d’un établissement de vente au détail.

L ' A S S O C IAT I O N C A NA D I E N N E D ' A L A R M E I N C E N D I E
Une des solutions possibles consiste à utiliser la
technologie la plus récente pour les détecteurs de
fumée classiques dans les conduits comprenant
un moyen d’aviser le personnel de prévention des
pertes lorsque le dispositif nécessite un entretien.
Une autre option consiste à utiliser des détecteurs de
fumée intelligents dans les conduits avec de multiples
niveaux d’indicateurs de service, qui sont affichés sur
le panneau de commande adressable du système. Ces
avertissements permettent les visites d’un technicien
en alarme incendie qualifié lors de situations dites
« ordinaires », soit avant qu’une situation d’alarme
d’urgence se produise.
En plus de la fonction de signal avancé, la technologie
de détection s’est considérablement améliorée avec le
temps afin de réduire le nombre de fausses alarmes et
d’augmenter la vitesse de détection. La mise à niveau
des anciens détecteurs de fumée dans les conduits
ainsi qu’une entente de service avec une entreprise
en alarme incendie qualifiée sont les bonnes étapes
Mai 2011
Par Richard Conner, gestionnaire de produits, NOTIFIER
à suivre pour maintenir le temps de disponibilité et
réduire les dépenses non prévues au budget.
Que peut réellement offrir un réseau avertisseur
d’incendie plus récent?
Les systèmes d’évacuation à signaux vocaux sont
utilisés comme moyen de signalisation lors d’une
alarme incendie pour répondre au besoin croissant de
communiquer des instructions précises et de capter
l’attention des occupants du bâtiment. Les systèmes
d’évacuation à signaux vocaux sont devenus de plus
en plus répandus en raison des codes changeant
en alarme incendie et du besoin de surmonter la
désensibilisation de la société envers les avertisseurs
d’alarme incendie standards. Les anciens systèmes
off rent habituellement un signal de type klaxon, qui
ne permet pas la transmission de messages précis.
Comme partie intégrante du réseau avertisseur
d’incendie, un système d’évacuation à signal
vocal permet de communiquer des instructions
préenregistrées ou en direct aux occupants. Il assure
l’évacuation lors d’une alarme incendie, tout en
fournissant la capacité de communiquer des messages
vocaux précis, en direct. Il existe des avantages
à utiliser un système d’évacuation à signal vocal
plutôt qu’un système de diff usion publique standard
pour les communications d’urgence, notamment
1) l’intelligibilité des annonces; et 2) la supervision
continue du système assurant un fonctionnement à
100 %.
Vous avez mentionné qu’il est possible d’améliorer
la surveillance des réseaux avertisseurs d’incendie
grâce à la nouvelle technologie. Comment?
La capacité de recevoir et de passer en revue de
l’information détaillée en situation d’urgence
depuis les réseaux avertisseurs d’incendie à tous les
emplacements commerciaux est avantageuse pour les
professionnels en matière de prévention des pertes.
L’information des emplacements individuels aide
à cerner les problèmes tôt et à réduire la colonne
des pertes dans l’équation de l’état des résultats. La
surveillance classique inclut les communications à une
station réceptrice de signal d’incendie hors site sur des
lignes téléphoniques. Historiquement, cela se faisait
avec un transmetteur de communication d’alarme
numérique qui ne se prête pas nécessairement bien au
signalement simultané de deux emplacements.
Une des solutions possibles serait un communicateur
IP/GSM qui peut fournir de l’information détaillée
en situation d’urgence et communiquer sur un
réseau TCP/IP (Internet) et cellulaire existant avec la
station réceptrice de signal d’incendie et le bureau.
De l’information précise et reçue au bon moment
sur l’état du réseau avertisseur d’incendie peut être
transmise aux récepteurs IP et aux personnes par
courriel et messages textes afin d’alerter les deux
emplacements. De plus, le coût mensuel de location
de deux lignes téléphoniques ou DVACS (digital voice
access control system) traditionnellement utilisées
pour les communications en alarme incendie avec
une station réceptrice de signal d’incendie peut être
éliminé. Une meilleure performance et des coûts
de surveillance réduits ajoutent une valeur réelle
lorsqu’une mise à niveau du réseau avertisseur
d’incendie est considérée.
À quoi pouvons-nous nous attendre d’un programme
de mise à niveau du réseau avertisseur d’incendie
au sein d’un environnement de vente au détail?
Des capacités de détection automatique améliorées
pour un avertissement précoce, un meilleur
signalement pour une plus grande sécurité des
occupants, et une meilleure sécurité de surveillance
hors site.
Tous ces points assurent une sécurité accrue des
occupants, une réduction des projections de perte en
cas d’incendie, moins d’interruptions causées par de
fausses alarmes et de problèmes de maintenance.
En somme, une bonne affaire pour la sécurité et le
bénéfice net.

Fire Safety Engineering
at Carleton University
By George Hadjisophocleous
Background
Fire Safety Engineering is a relatively new discipline.
The need for qualified fire protection engineers
in Canada and around the world has increased
dramatically during recent years. To satisfy this need,
Carleton University, with support from the Natural
Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC)
and FPInnovations, established an Industrial
Research Chair in Fire Safety Engineering within the
Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering
in 2001, and began offering courses the same year.
FPInnovations and NSERC provide financial
support for the Chair, which is held by Professor
Hadjisophocleous, and his research program.
Description of Academic Program
Following many years of continuous increase in
student enrollment in Fire Safety Engineering, in
2009 Fire Safety Engineering was accredited as a new
Field of Graduate Study in the Department of Civil
and Environmental Engineering offering degrees at
the Masters and PhD levels. Our graduates easily find
employment with engineering consultancy firms,
governments and other fire related industries. The
number of graduate courses offered by the department
in the area of fire safety engineering has increased
from six to the following nine courses:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•

Fundamentals of Fire Safety Engineering
Fire Dynamics I and II
Fire Modeling
Design for Fire Resistance
Material Behavior in Fire
Wood Structures and Fire
Introduction to Explosives
Blast Load Effects on Structures
C A NA D IA N F I R E A L A R M A S S O C IAT I O N
Most of the courses are available through Carleton
University Online (CUol) (http://www1.carleton.ca/
cuol/) and they are accessible to distance students.
Seven PhD and 11 Masters students are currently
enrolled in the Fire Safety Engineering program.
Details on program admission requirements and
program requirements can be found at www.ocice.ca,
which is the website of the Ottawa-Carleton Institute
for Civil Engineering.
Research facilities
Carleton University has, with financial support from
the Canadian Foundation for Innovation, and the
Ontario Innovation Trust, built a unique $10 million
full-scale fire research facility adjacent to the fire
research facilities of the National Research Council
in Almonte, Ontario.
This facility is of great value to the research
program of the Chair, and provides unique research
opportunities to graduate students at Carleton
specializing in Fire Safety Engineering. The research
facility comprises three areas: an area dealing with
smoke control and smoke management in a large
space such as an atrium, a large burn hall, and a 37
m long tunnel for performing fire research for the
transportation industry.
The atrium with dimensions of 20 x 20 x 30 m high has
a common wall with the NRC’s 10-storey tower. This
allows access for visual observations and videotaping
during the tests at any level. In addition, it allows
tests to be performed that deal with the effectiveness
of smoke control systems used in high-rise buildings,
and atrium smoke management systems in multistory buildings whose floors are interconnected with
an atrium space. The atrium facility is equipped with
a 10 MW propane burner, which can be used as the
main heat source for conducting tests.
May 2011
A burn hall with dimensions of 20 x 20 x 12 m
high is located adjacent to the atrium facility, that
houses a number of full-scale test furnaces. One of
these furnaces has been used over the last two years
to perform tests for two projects; the first project
funded by NSERC and FPInnovations studied the
performance of heavy timber connections in fires.
The second project, funded by the Steel Structures
Education Foundation, investigated the behaviour of
Hollow Steel Section (HSS) column-beam connections
in fires. Results of these projects were presented at
International Conferences and have both received
awards for Best Poster.
The third part of the facility is a 10 m wide, 6 m high
and 37 m long tunnel for conducting tests related to
the transportation industry. Tests can be conducted
that can represent fires with both the ventilation
system operating, and not operating. Tests in this
area will allow us to better estimate the heat release
rate produced by fires in passenger train cars and
to determine critical velocities to prevent the flow
of smoke towards the protected side of the car. This
facility will house train cars provided by the Toronto
Transit Commission, which will be used to perform
full-scale tests in this area.
Research projects
In addition to projects mentioned above, Dr
Hadjisophocleous’ team has been involved in various
other research projects including studies on the
performance of smoke detectors in high ceiling
spaces, the use of Video Image Detectors for fire and
smoke detection in large spaces, fire spread between
buildings, the use of suppression systems in tunnels,
and fire development in a full-scale train car. For the
latter test, a full-scale fire test was performed using
a Korean passenger train car to determine the heat
release rate of an uncontrolled fire inside the car.

Installations de recherche
L’Université Carleton a construit, avec le soutien
financier de la Fondation canadienne pour
l’innovationet le Fonds ontarien pour l’innovation,
une installation complète et unique de recherche
en incendiede 10 millions de dollars,attenantaux
installations de recherche incendiedu Conseil national
de recherchesàAlmonte, en Ontario.
Cette installation est d’une grande valeur pour le
programme de recherche de la chaire,et elle fournit
des occasions de rechercheuniquesaux étudiants de
cycle supérieurà Carleton qui se spécialisent dans le
domaine du génie en sécurité incendie.L’installation
de recherchecomprend troissecteurs,dont une
zonepour le contrôle de la fuméeet la gestion de la
fuméedans de grands espaces,comme un atrium, une
grande salle d’essai de combustionet un tunnel de 37
m de longvisant la recherche incendiepour l’industrie
du transport.
Mai 2011
L’atrium de 20 x 20 x 30 m de hauteurpartage un hall
communavec la tour de 10 étages du Conseil national
de recherches. Cela permet l’accèsaux observations
visuelleset à l’enregistrementdurant les testsà tous
les niveaux. De plus, cela permet aussi d’effectuer des
tests portantsur l’efficacitédes systèmes de contrôle
de la fuméeutilisés dans les bâtiments de grande
hauteur,et les systèmes de gestion de la fumée dans
les atriumsdes édifices de plusieurs étages,dont les
plancherssont interconnectésavec un espace atrium.
L’installation de l’atrium est munie d’un brûleur
de propane de 10 MW, qui peut être utilisécomme
principale source de chaleurlors des tests.
Une salle d’essai de combustionde 20 x 20 x 12
m de hauteurse trouve à côté de l’installation de
l’atrium;elle abritede nombreusesfournaises d’essai
pleine grandeur. Une de ces fournaisesa été utilisée
au cours des deux dernières annéespour effectuer
des testspour deux projets.Le premier projet, financé
parle CRSNGetFPInnovations,portait sur l’étude de
la performancedes liens de bois massiflorsqu’exposé
au feu. Le deuxième projet, financé par laSteel
Structures
EducationFoundation,
étudiaitle
comportementdes liens des poutres-colonnes en
section d’acier creuxlorsqu’exposé au feu. Les résultats
de ces projetsont été présentés aux Conférences
internationaleset se sont tous les deux méritédes prix
pour lameilleure affiche.
La troisième partie de l’installation est un tunnel de
10 m de large, 6 m de hautet 37 m de longqui sert à
mener des testsliés à l’industrie du transport. Il est
possible d’y effectuer des testsd’incendieavec ou sans
le système de ventilation. Les tests effectués à cet
endroitnous permettront d’estimer plus précisémentla
puissance calorifiqueproduite par les feuxdans les
wagons de trains de voyageurset de déterminerla
vitesse critique pour prévenirla propagation de la
fuméevers le côté protégédu wagon. Cette installation
abritera deswagons de train fournis par laToronto
Transit Commission, qui seront utilisés pour effectuer
des essais complets.
Projets de recherche
En plus des projets susmentionnés, l’équipe du
DrHadjisophocleouss’est
investie
dansdivers
autresprojets de recherche,notamment des étudessur
la performancedes détecteurs de fuméedans les
espaces ayant des plafonds élevés, l’utilisation de
détecteursavec images vidéovisant la détection
du feu et de la fuméedans les grands espaces, la
propagation du feu entreles bâtiments, l’utilisation
des systèmesd’extinctiondans les tunnels,et le
développement du feudans les grands wagons de train.
Ce dernier projet a fait l’objet d’un test d’incendie
completen utilisantun train de voyageurs coréen afin
de déterminerla puissance calorifiqued’un feu non
maîtriséà l’intérieur du wagon.
