Course: Design Implications of Emergency Rescue Radio Systems (ERRS) Introductory Course
Category: Health, Safety and Wellness
Continuing Education System: 1 LU/HSW
Topic: Project Planning & Design - Building Systems, Materials, Assemblies
Contact/Schedule: Bryan Harris, PE, MLIS, RCDD at bharris@sbmce.com or 330-526-2716
Course Description:
This course provides an overview of the design implications and impact of Emergency Rescue Radio Systems (ERRS) on new construction. These systems, although required by building codes for many years, have recently come into focus in light of current events. Proper planning for ERRS can reduce construction costs and provide safer buildings. This course will first provide an overview of ERRS and then discuss architectural and engineering design considerations for cost effective implementation these systems.
Prerequisite: A general knowledge of the design and construction process for a new building.
Course Details:
Emergency Rescue Radio Systems are critical to first responders in times of crisis. These systems allow responders to use their radio communication devices within buildings that may have reduced signal coverage due to particular types of construction or environmental conditions at critical times. Understanding the requirements for planning for this infrastructure can avoid significant costs associated with providing the system after the building is built.
Learning Objectives:
- Describe the purpose of Emergency Responder Radio Systems and their benefit to emergency responders.
- Discuss the requirements for adequate signal coverage for an Emergency Responder Radio System and how to assure that coverage requirements are met.
- Describe the ongoing maintenance requirements for Emergency Responder Radio Systems and the safety implications of inadequate maintenance.

Course: Alternative Energy Solutions
Category: Energy Options
Continuing Education System: 1 LU
Topic: Project Planning & Design – Project Costs and Budgeting
Contact/Schedule: Bryan Harris, PE, MLIS, RCDD at bharris@sbmce.com or 330-526-2716
Course Description:
This course provides an overview of a variety of alternative energy sources such as solar photovoltaic (PV) energy, fuel cell technology, and small wind energy. National Electrical Code (NEC) design and safety considerations will be reviewed.
Prerequisite: None
Course Details:
One thing that can be guaranteed is that alternative energy solutions will continue to develop and improve over time. The "state of the art" will change very rapidly. The viability of an alternative energy solution today may be different tomorrow. More than likely, many technologies will improve, and their associated costs will decrease but it could also mean that a technology will not be economically feasible in the near future or even longer.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand solar PV energy technology and economics and be able to site and size a PV system.
- Understand fuel cell technology and economics and be able to discuss and size a fuel cell system.
- Understand small wind energy technology and economics and be able to site and size a wind energy system.
- Understand the NEC and safety issues concerning these alternative energy technologies.

Course: IoT HSW - Internet of Things Applied to Health, Safety and Welfare
Category: Health, Safety and Welfare
Continuing Education System: 1 LU/HSW
Topic: Project Planning & Design - Building Design
Contact/Schedule: Bryan Harris, PE, MLIS, RCDD at bharris@sbmce.com or 330-526-2716
Course Description:
This course provides an overview of the internet of things (IoT). IoT has already become a big part of many people's lives, whether they realize it or not. Dependence on IoT devices and applications is becoming commonplace. Although many applications are geared toward the individual user, IoT can be used to improve health, safety, and welfare on a wider scope. IoT can enhance building usage and operation, and enhance the health, safety and wellness of its occupants. This course discusses basic concepts of IoT design and health, safety and wellness applications as related to the A/E/C industry.
Prerequisite: A general knowledge the internet and health, safety and welfare needs of building owners and occupants.
Course Details:
Being "connected" is not only a convenience but can have a significant impact on our daily lives. Health and wellness are important to the individual, but is also important to employers, caregivers, and family members. Safety is a primary concern to not only individuals and employers, but also to emergency responders. IoT can enhance the lives of all of these groups, but lack of understanding of the applications can severely limit their implementation and effectiveness.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand and describe IoT, its general functions and applications.
- Identify IoT health applications, and how they support building occupants and employers.
- Identify IoT safety applications, and how they support building occupants, owners and users.
- Identify IoT welfare applications, and how they support building occupants, employers and users.
- Understand factors than can affect IoT performance, such as Wi-Fi coverage, cell coverage, DAS (Distributed Antenna System) and ERRS (Emergency Responder Radio Systems), and how those factors relate to the overall welfare and safety of the building occupants.
