Join us on Thursday, February 19th for an exciting ASPE Philadelphia Chapter meeting, generously hosted by Pennoni. We are thrilled that Pennoni is opening their doors to welcome our chapter for an evening of learning, networking, and collaboration.

Meeting Topic

Fire Protection Engineering and Firefighting Operations: Designing for Success and Safety

Fire protection engineers and firefighters often face the same challenges—but from very different perspectives. When those viewpoints connect, designs become smarter and firefighting becomes more effective. This presentation will explore how a strong understanding of fireground operations helps engineers design systems that not only meet code requirements, but actively support firefighter safety and effectiveness.

Speaker Spotlight

In addition to his design expertise, E.J. serves as a firefighter with a rural volunteer fire department. He also provides specialized training for firefighters, offering an engineering-based understanding of building and fire protection systems.
