Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fire and smoke dampers play a critical role in the safety and integrity of buildings. They are designed to prevent the spread of fire and smoke through ductwork, thereby protecting occupants and limiting property damage during a fire event. Despite their importance, these components often receive less attention than other elements of fire safety systems. This book aims to change that by providing a comprehensive guide to understanding, selecting, installing, and maintaining fire and smoke dampers. The inspiration for this book arose from my experience in the field of building safety and HVAC systems. Over the years, I have witnessed both the successes and failures in fire protection, and one recurring theme has been the pivotal role of properly designed and maintained fire and smoke dampers. This book is intended to bridge the knowledge gap for engineers, architects, contractors, building owners, and safety professionals. The structure of the book is designed to take the reader from fundamental concepts to advanced applications. We start with an overview of fire and smoke dampers, their history, and their importance in modern buildings. We then delve into the technical aspects, exploring the different types of dampers, materials used, and construction standards. A significant portion of the book is dedicated to the regulatory environment, discussing codes, standards, certification processes, and compliance requirements. Design and installation are covered in detail, providing practical guidance to ensure that fire and smoke dampers are integrated seamlessly into building systems. The operation and maintenance sections offer insights into keeping these critical components in optimal condition, highlighting best practices for inspection and repair. Real-world applications and case studies demonstrate the versatility and necessity of fire and smoke dampers across various building types, from commercial and industrial to institutional settings. We also look to the future, exploring technological advancements and emerging trends that are shaping the field of fire protection. Writing this book has been a journey of exploration and learning. I am deeply grateful to the experts and professionals who have shared their knowledge and experiences, contributing to the richness of this text. I hope that this book serves as a valuable resource for anyone involved in building safety and fire protection, enhancing your understanding and enabling you to make informed decisions that safeguard lives and property. Thank you for joining me on this journey. Together, we can make buildings safer and more resilient, one damper at a time.

Book excerpt: The Tirgonian Empire, always on the hunt for conquest and expansion, does not consider the efforts of the rebel Guardians a serious threat to their imperial plans. After a series of devastating conflicts, the Guardians have suffered massive losses to their forces but not their resolve. They continue to fight their way into Tirgonian territory, undaunted by defeat. Even though the Guardians are focused on escaping the Tirgonian forces, commanded by Telecoup Mular, tension mounts between several of the Guardian survivors. The few remaining Guardians are bolstered by the arrival of additional survivors, but the initial contact does not go smoothly. The survivors arrive on a new sort of spaceship, one that the Guardians have never seen. Once the Guardians realize their mistakes, it is revealed that there are more concealed ships, hopefully increasing their chances of survival. The Guardians must now invent unique solutions to seemingly unsolvable problems. The unexpected defection of a senior Tirgonian officer named Telebisque Serligh Teka, his entire crew, and their Fighting Star Palup is a welcome boost to the weary rebel effort. Renewed, the Guardians continue fighting their way across enemy territory. Against seemingly insurmountable odds, can the Guardians prevail? And if so, at what cost?

Download or read book The New Guardians written by Cedric L. Alexander and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-06-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New Guardians: Policing in America's Communities for the 21st Century embodies nearly forty years of experience in law enforcement in addition to a career in clinical psychology. In search of a better way to police our nation, Dr. Cedric L. Alexander takes us back some 200 years to the Constitution-and then some 2,400 to Plato's Republic-and shows us how to remodel the warrior cop into the Guardian at the heart of community policing. Amid today's explosion of homicide in our most-challenged neighborhoods and the bid of international terrorism for the allegiance of marginalized youth everywhere, healing wounded relations between the police and the people has never been more urgent. This is the story of one man's quiet, courageous leadership. Cedric L. Alexander entered law enforcement in 1977, as a deputy sheriff in Leon County, Florida, on the brink of profound transformations in America and American policing. In many cities, the nation was in civil war, the police on one side, the community on the other. Wars are about winning by inflicting defeat. As a young deputy, Alexander saw that unending combat was destroying police-community relations. He devoted the next four decades to creating something new and something better. His background combines a long career as a deputy, a police officer, and a detective in the Tallahassee area, in Orlando, and in Miami-Dade, Florida, with a career in clinical psychology, both as a practitioner and an assistant professor at the University of Rochester (New York). He holds a Doctorate of Clinical Psychology from Wright State University (Dayton, Ohio) and provided senior-level administrative and clinical leadership of mental health services within the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Rochester School of Medicine, with special emphasis on counseling police officers, firefighters, and their families. He served as Deputy Chief and then as Chief of Police of the Rochester Police Department and subsequently was appointed Deputy Commissioner in the New York State Division of Criminal Justice Services before joining the U.S. Department of Homeland Security as Federal Security Director for Dallas/ Fort Worth International Airport (DFW). In 2013, Dr. Alexander was appointed Chief of Police for DeKalb County and, at the end of the year, became Deputy Chief Operating Officer/Public Safety Director. About the Author Cedric L. Alexander, Psy.D., is Director of Public Safety and Deputy Chief Operating Officer, DeKalb County Office of Public Safety, responsible for leading the Police and Fire Departments in the second-largest county in the metro-Atlanta area. He has served as President of the National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives (NOBLE) and was appointed in 2015 to the President's Task Force on 21st Century Policing. Dr. Alexander has appeared on MSNBC's Morning Joe, CBS Evening News, ABC World News with Diane Sawyer, and NBC Nightly News, and has have written numerous opinion editorials for CNN, for which he is an on-air Law Enforcement Analyst.
