Introduction
Lightning Protection System (LPS) is a system designed to protect building structures and equipment from lightning strikes. Singapore has an average of about 176 lightning days yearly, one of the highest worldwide. Hence, it is vital that, practitioners, consultants, and Engineers have the necessary knowledge to mitigate the impact. Management, Supervisors, and contractors also have the knowledge about the LPS to implement the system effectively. This course aims to provide, strengthen, and deepen the understanding of the LPS design and its applications.
Objective:
This two-day course covers “four parts of SS555-2018 – Singapore Standard – Protection against Lightning”, LPS design, Risk calculations, LPS applications, etc. There will be a break between sessions, practice on calculating risk & LPS design practice, Continuous assessment in the form of random quizzes, and activities to re-call and re-instate what has been taught in class will be carried out to enhance the learning process. We expected learners to be able to design a simple Lightning Protection System based on the calculated risk at end of the course.
Who Should Attend
This course is suitable for all Practitioners, Consultants, Professional Engineers, Management, Builders, and contractors who are dealing with and willing to learn/work in Lightning Protection System design, installation, maintenance work, etc.
The course provides the necessary knowledge to understand the regulatory requirements and the design principles and take appropriate action to enhance the safety management of an LPS.
Besides, the course is also suitable for those willing to sit for the Practice of Professional Engineering Examination – Part 2 (PPE - Part 2)
What Participants Will Learn:
This course is crafted to apply the design principles of the Lightning Protection System, risk assessment calculations, Testing, and maintenance. Most importantly, at the end of this course, participants gain confidence and acquire the knowledge of LPS design principles and the regulatory requirements to perform better in their job roles.
