FIRE SAFETY SECTION

INDUSTRY FOCUS

Fire scene reconstruction : The new wave
The expert opinion may be part of a written report or the basis for oral testimony in depositions or courtrooms.In order to be effective, these expert opinions must be able to pass the eventual scrutiny of cross-examination during sworn depositions, peer review, and courtroom testimony.

Performance-based design of facility fire protection : Analysing the key factors
One type of performance-based fire protection design ensures that smoke will not reach occupants before they can safely evacuate the building. Fire protection engineers demonstrate this with calculations of smoke development and occupant egress based on an evaluation of the types of fires that may be expected to occur in the facility.

TECHEDGE

Evaluating the impact of building energy efficiency changes on fire protection
Electricity may be generated in the form of small on-site windmills. Storage of electricity is a large technological challenge (e.g., battery limitations in electric cars); instead, it’s likely that any electricity generated on site will be augmented by power from the existing electrical grid. In the event excess electricity is generated on site, it can be sold back to the utility for a credit.

Analysing the risk in the oil and gas energy industry
The fire protection community is slowly using performance-based criteria in determining appropriate fire protection. “Performance-based” applications to code compliance have been adopted across the globe. In the energy production sector, risk assessment is used and the latest modeling programs are used to assess the hazards of fires and explosions.

Fire alarms: Factors affecting the performance
The ultimate action expected from occupants when the fire alarm is activated is to initiate evacuation movement. Unfortunately, this is probably an objective that is rarely met. The activation of the fire alarm by itself is rarely sufficient to trigger the evacuation of a building. Additional cues, such as a smell or sight of smoke or flames, are needed to certify the credibility of the fire alarm.

Intelligent building systems : Adopting the scientific approach
A comprehensive approach to providing building tactical information to building incident responders, applicable at all jurisdictional levels and across functional disciplines, would further improve the effectiveness of emergency response providers and incident management organizations across a full spectrum of potential building incidents and hazard scenarios.

Combating the emergencies
A flood submerges perishable products with contaminated floodwater. When an emergency hits, your response in the next minute could mean the difference between business property survival and disastrous loss. And survival depends upon your own readiness.

Developing a welding and cutting safety program
Employee involvement provides opportunities for workers to develop and express their own commitment to safety and health, for both themselves and their co-workers. Management should strive to involve employees in all aspects of welding and cutting safety.

TECHENO FOCUS

Fire protection engineering with human integrations
The anticipation of human behavior and prediction of human responses is one of the most complex areas of fire protection engineering. Because the understanding of human behavior in fire is limited compared to other areas of fire protection engineering and behavioral study, it is difficult to predict accurately the responses and behaviors of people in fire situations.

Fire prevention through fire hazards analysis
The use of a fire hazards analysis framework can identify the limits of traditional approaches and can be used to structure and integrate fire prevention and protection programs accordingly. Combining fire hazards analysis with risk assessment, system design, and performance-based analyses, specific fire prevention needs can be identified and effective controls can be developed.
