Abstract:
Fire shelters are critical safety items required for use by most wildland firefighters in the United States. Most testing of fire shelters, clothing and other personal protective equipment (PPE) has been limited to prescribed fires or laboratory based studies. This study reports results from experiments where lined and unlined stainless steel or aluminum and glass fabric shelters were tested under high intensity crown fire conditions in and adjacent to experimental burn plots. Firefighter clothing and standard (pre-2003) fire shelters were also tested. Measured shelter surface and air temperat

This article presents a procedure for how to relate fire performance of fibre-reinforced polymer composite structures to the fire safety regulations in Safety of Life at Sea II-2. It can be used as basis when performing a fire risk assessment to demonstrate that the degree of safety is at least equivalent to that provided by prescriptive requirements. A key issue is that requirements and test methods are based on the use of steel structures, which requires seeking the safety level implied by the regulations. This was demonstrated for the regulations and introduced hazards affecting the growth

Abstract:
The article discusses the results of research into the effectiveness of various types of fire retardants (non-structural, structural and combined) to ensure the required fire hazard and fire resistance performance of wooden structures. The analysis of the research results is aimed at establishing the possibility of using different types of fire protection for the sphere of multi-storey wooden house building, which has a dynamic development all over the world.

Abstract:
By implementing the methods of probability theory using statistical data on fires, the dependence of the influence of the effectiveness of the functioning of the corresponding fire protection system on the consequences of a fire is substantiated. On the basis of statistical data, the coefficient of efficiency of performance of the functions of fire protection systems, the coefficient of equipment of objects with fire protection systems and the coefficient of serviceability of fire protection systems were established. According to the results of the fully factorial experiment, the dependence of
