Most of a building’s fire safety is fixed on your plan before the fire engineer is appointed.
This one hour fire safety CPD course for architects covers the type of construction and fire resistance levels, egress on the floor plate with the NCC 2025 re-entry and wayfinding rules, sprinklers, smoke and the carpark changes, and the external wall evidence and transition advice that defend your record.
Fully online and self paced. Your certificate is issued the moment you finish and is stored in your account.
Description
This fire safety CPD course for architects shows how fire safety in Class 2 to 9 buildings is settled by architectural decisions under NCC 2025 Volume One. You will calculate the rise in storeys, read the type of construction and the fire resistance levels that follow from class and distance to a fire-source feature, and identify which elements must be non-combustible. You will test exits, travel distances, separation and stair protection on a floor plate, and apply the NCC 2025 rules for stair re-entry and wayfinding signs. You will work with the fire safety engineer on sprinkler triggers, smoke management and the NCC 2025 open-deck carpark and carstacker provisions, and know when a Performance Solution is the right path. The course closes on the external wall verification method, evidence of suitability, the fire safety record, and written advice for projects that cross 1 May 2027.
This CPD provides general guidance on professional responsibilities and documentation practices. It does not constitute legal advice or replace project-specific contractual or statutory obligations.
