Smoke Control System TAB testing is a verification process that ensures the smoke management system operates properly in accordance with design criteria to protect occupants during a fire. The procedure involves measuring fan airflow, duct pressure, and pressure differentials between smoke control zones, and adjusting the system so that all components operate in a balanced manner.
Through TAB testing, the smoke control system’s performance is optimized, ensuring that evacuation routes remain clear and preventing the spread of smoke during an actual fire.
