Fire Risk Analysis: A Systems Approach (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a new, systematic approach to fire risk analysis in communities. It emphasizes the importance of viewing fire protection not solely as fire suppression, but as a complex system involving multiple departments and agencies. The author encourages fire managers to take a "helicopter perspective," understanding the interconnectedness of various elements within the community, such as building codes, public education, and the capabilities of fire departments. The book offers practical tools for assessing fire risk, including detailed methods for calculating needed fire flow for various buildings, considering factors like construction type, occupancy, and exposure. It also introduces a method for estimating life risk, classifying buildings into risk levels based on safety features and potential occupant behavior. This approach challenges traditional fire service practices and presents a framework for developing more effective and efficient fire protection strategies. By recognizing the interconnectedness of community elements and analyzing risk through a systematic lens, fire managers can develop proactive plans to minimize loss of life and property. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780266091479_0
