by leading sprinkler system experts, most of whom are RISCAuthority insurer members. It is often referred to as the ‘Bible’ for the sprinkler industry, and is a comprehensive work of reference for anyone who has a professional interest in sprinkler design, specification and installation. The printed looseleaf A4 ringbinder
continues to be a popular reference document, with a new and more rigid binder now in stock and available to order from
www.thefpa.co.uk/shop There has been increasing customer
demand for the Rules to be made available online, with the following being cited: • CD-ROM drives are no longer a component of modern slimline laptops and portable devices (hence why the CD-ROM of the Rules was removed from sale last year)
with a USB containing high quality training aids including a PowerPoint presentation, delegate handouts, a quiz, a certificate template and an accompanying trainer handbook that provides detailed guidance for those conducting the training sessions. All of our TIPs have recently undergone
a refresh, with improvements made to the outer packaging and USB designs. Our range of TIPs includes: • Fire safety awareness • Role of the fire warden • Fire safety in schools • Fire safety in residential care homes • Fire safety in healthcare premises • Fundamentals of health and safety Prices start from just £145+ VAT for FPA members, and TIPs can be ordered online at
www.thefpa.co.uk/shop, or via email at

Electronic version of sprinkler rules
The LPC Rules for Automatic Sprinkler Installations (the Rules) are a prestigious and established publication, forming a key component of the FPA’s heritage and expertise in this area. The Rules expand upon a core standard (currently BS EN 12845) with annotations and currently 33 supporting technical bulletins (TBs). Customers who have purchased the Rules can be assured that the supporting technical narrative to the core standard has been developed
• an increased need for the Rules to be accessible offline, and available remotely at locations where satellite or internet coverage cannot be guaranteed
• the binder version remained useful for reference, but was becoming cumbersome to transport and reference on jobs
From June, the sprinkler rules will also be available as a secure online PDF, suitably encrypted to satisfy BSI requirements, and which can only be opened by the number of authorised devices (via licences). A prepublication price of £255 has been agreed, and subscribers will be contacted in the next month
