Welcome to the Greater St. Louis Chapter of the Society of Fire Protection Engineers website.  To find out what is happening with our chapter, take a look at the latest edition of our Burning Issue monthly newsletter or our Calendar of Events.  Currently, there are several seminars planned for this region over the next several months.

For students pursuing the study of fire protection engineering, or a related field of engineering, we have two annual scholarships available.  Scholarship applications are due by April 15th of the year.

For professionals we have monthly meetings which occur on the third Monday of each month with the exception of June, July, August, and December.  Our monthly meetings provide an opportunity to meet other similarly minded professionals while staying abreast of the latest technologies and concepts in the fire protection community.  For retired professionals, your membership dues are waived.  If you are interested in joining the Greater St. Louis Chapter of SFPE see the membership page.

If you are interested in presenting a topic, or know of someone who is interested in presenting at one of our monthly meetings, please contact the Vice President, Holly Olsen, at hollyo@codeconsultants.com.  

Thank you for visiting!

Please see an update from former member Bill Aaron below:

Engineered Corrosion Solutions (ECS) believes that education is a vital part of the fire sprinkler industry’s fight to mitigate corrosion in the fire sprinkler systems, as well as, improve then image of the fire sprinkler industry. As a result of ECS’ focus on education, ECS established ECS University for the specific purpose of educating the fire sprinkler industry on the science of corrosion and corrosion management. ECS University started with in-person classes in October of 2018 and added virtual classes in June of 2020. The next phase is ECS University “On Demand” program which will allow attendees to learn on their schedule from either a computer or their smart phone. ECS University Online “On Demand” program launched December 1, 2020.

ECS has the ability to develop presentations and sessions specifically for you and your members. We can offer presentations for Chapter meetings as well as in depth training sessions both in-person and virtually.    

Please contact me to discuss developing a program specific to your members and together we can improve our industry.

Thanks
