Retrofit
Description
Retrofit (Part 9 of the Ontario Fire Code) is a tool that is used to bridge the gap between older buildings and current codes and standards. Retrofit plays an integral role for municipal fire departments when dealing with specific high-risk occupancies like rooming and lodging houses, basement apartments, hospitals and senior's living facilities. In this subject, students gain a thorough understanding of how retrofit is utilized to make aging buildings safer and the historical cases that have shaped the compliance requirements of Part 9 of the Ontario Fire Code.
