Reihe: The Society of Fire Protection Engineers Series

This book serves as a companion to the Society of Fire Protection Engineer’s (SFPE) Guide to Fire Risk Assessments, focusing  on the distinctive requirements of a Mass Notification Risk Assessment (MNRA).  In doing so, it closely follows the structure of the SFPE’s Guide so that engineers familiar with that reference will be able to quickly navigate directions for Mass Notification System (MNS) Risk Assessment, easily being able to recognize the similarities and distinguish the differences. The book provides guidance for fire protection engineers and emergency managers for the following competencies:

• Development, selection, and use of recognized risk assessment methodologies for the design and operation of building notification systems, and notification options beyond building infrastructure
• Addressing emergency risk acceptability
• The role of Emergency Response Plans (ERP) in an MNS Risk Assessment
• The role of the MNS Risk Assessment in Emergency Response Planning
• The role of MNS Risk Assessment in the design of Mass Notification Systems, and their role in operational emergency responses
• Communicating and monitoring emergency risks in the design and operation of buildings, facilities, and processes
