Electric vehicles (EV) and charging stations, green walls, occupied roofs, and even art installations can have serious impacts on the fire protection and structural integrity of parking structures. Implementation of these sustainable designs introduce potential hazards and fire risks that have prompted designers and building code and fire officials to reevaluate safety requirements.

In this webinar, fire protection engineers Justin Fletcher and Nicholas Ozog, along with structural engineer Tim Gregor, present case studies illustrating the implementation of EV technology in parking structures, explore the hazards they may pose, and consider potential solutions to address these challenges.
