Where can I learn Revit specifically for Fire Systems Design?
Hi everyone,
I completed a Master of Fire Engineering at the University of Canterbury in New Zealand. Unfortunately, over the past year there have been very few entry-level Fire Engineering opportunities available here.
I have noticed that there are occasionally roles advertised as Fire Systems Design Engineer / Fire Protection Design Engineer, where employers are looking for people who can use Revit to design fire protection systems, particularly sprinkler and other fire services systems.
Because of this, I am currently learning Revit and would like to develop my skills specifically toward fire systems design.
The problem is that I have been struggling to find good learning resources for this area. There are some courses on Udemy covering things like Revit MEP and fire protection/sprinkler design, but many of them are only a few hours long. They seem useful as introductions, but I am not sure they go into enough depth to make someone job-ready.
For those working in fire protection design:
- Where would you recommend learning Revit specifically for fire protection/fire systems design?
- Are there any comprehensive online courses, textbooks, training providers, or project-based tutorials you would recommend?
I already have the Fire Engineering background, so I am mainly trying to fill the practical Revit / fire systems design gap and make myself more employable.
