- scope of work, 2. purpose of the project, 3. the expected final deliverables.
When it comes to PPS design, it is the job of the ___ to advise the best interest of the client, regardless of influence, and to help in creating biddable documents.
Consultant
Three minimum lighting measurements for ATM’s (measured in 3ft. above ground) are what?
- 25 FC (290 Lux) at or around an ATM,
- 10 FC (107 Lux) within 5 ft. of the face of the ATM
- 2 FC (22 Lux) 50 to 60 ft away from the ATM
ATM’s should also not be installed in high-crime areas; 4 options include what?
- move the ATM
- close the ATM down
- Limit ATM operating hours.
- Limit the amount of cash that can be withdrawn in a single daily transmission.
Schools should focus their protection program on these 4 things.
- site
- building design
- interior spaces
- systems and equipment
In schools, the ___ should have a clear line of sight to observe the parking areas, vehicular traffic, any playgrounds and gathering areas as well as courtyards, classrooms and other high risk areas.
Administrative Offices
A ___ is approximately 75 ft to 100 ft in height, which equates to 7-10 stories high
High-Rise Structure
Government buildings should ensure that boundaries define movement and circulations patterns. there are four categories for security measures in such facilities, they are these 4 things.
- Perimeter and Exterior
- Entry Security
- Interior Security
- Security Planning
The greatest risks of a high rise structure are these 3 things.
- Fire
- Bombings
- contamination of air and water supplies
These are 4 significant factors affecting high rise structures.
- Early detection and the precise location of incipient hazards
- Reliable communications throughout the entire structure
- Safe escape routes for all occupants
- Rapid deployment of control measures (containment and removal)
___ is the first priority for a high- rise facility and should offer detection capabilities and the precise location of the fire.
Fire Detection
It is important to extinguish any fire within the first ___ minutes during the incipient/germinal phase of a fire.
3 to 4 minutes
The use of ___ such as x-ray machines, explosive detectors and metal detectors can help to reduce the risk of bombing in a high-rise. Screening and controlling vehicle access and parking under or near a high-rise can assist in the mitigation of such threats.
Screening Equipment
Introducing ___ into the water supply are most dangerous when introduced where the water supply enters the building.
Contaminating Agents
For this reason (contaminated water), ___ should use localized points for distribution that can operate independently even when a network or communication path has been disrupted or severed.
Life Safety Communication
A ___ system can be used for one-way communications within a high-rise structure
Public Adress (PA)
What does PA stand for?
Public Adress
A comprehensive ___ is critical to reduce the impact of an emergency.
Emergency Management Plan (EMP)
What does EMP stand for?
Emergency Management Plan
There are three main concepts used in high-rise facilities that often dictate the level of security and the corresponding measures in use are what?
- Open building: Unrestricted access at the entry level
- Closed buildings: Restricted and have some form of credential checking and visitor authentication
- Hybrid buildings: A combination of unrestricted and restricted areas within the high-rise.
There are three types of interior spaces that are often referred to within a high-rise facility. What are they?
- Public Access or Common Areas
- Interior Rented or Assigned Occupancies
- Maintenance Spaces
___ should be used to prevent unauthorized access by a vehicle (gate alarms, crash-rated impact barriers, etc).
Parking controls
___ installed in cash handling areas, reception areas, parking garage booths, etc. Training should be provided to users as well as emergency responders.
Duress Alarms
Placement of ___ should be high above ground or protected by a tower or another means to prevent the introduction of a contaminant.
HVAC Intakes
___ must be strictly controlled at all times.
Elevator Keys
___ uses a topology architecture that connects one central node to multiple peripheral nodes. All transmission form one node are rebroadcast to all peripherals.
Star
___ is a single line, known as the “bus”, provides the only line to which all nodes are connected. Very common as an Ethernet network that connects security devices
Bus Topology
___ uses a point-to-point node connection that is configured in a strait line.
Linear Topology
Communications for security devices can use multiple formats. The system should consider these 4 things. What are they?
- Integrity of the communication medium
- Integrity of the messages
- Timeliness of the transmission
- Message security
___ is the transmission of several messages (signals) at the same time.
Multiplex
What are the 2 things that the individual signals from a multiplex need to be separated by?
- Frequency (Voice Pitch)
2. Amplitude (Loudness)
What is the simplest form of a coupe scrambler?
Frequency Inverter
