Abstract:
office buildings are generally known to have high-rise of fire due to its complexity, combustible materials, and its economic value. The primary aim of this study is to investigate the fire safety protection and prevention system installed in six randomly selected office buildings. The method adopted in achieving the study objective includes literature review, interview, and physical inspection/observation. Thus, a multiattribute evaluation approach was adopted to establish adequate, inadequate, and no fire safety systems, used the pre-designed checklist from NFPA, 2008, NBC, 2006, and NFSC, 2

Abstract:
Large quantities of solid municipal waste containing a variety of flammable substances, that are disposed of in sanitary and non-sanitary landfills and even illegal dump sites, usually entail a high risk of fire. The level of risk is increased by the presence of methane which is released by municipal waste decomposition. The number of landfill fires varies depending on the morphological composition of the waste, ignition sources, meteorological conditions, time of year, as well as fire protection measures. The paper describes the impact of flammable waste on landfill fires, as well as causes,

Abstract:
The article deals with some aspects of forest protection in the Olevske Forestry Branch and forest fire prevention measures in its territory. It is noted that most of the forests belonging to the Branch are mainly represented by the 2nd class of natural fire hazard. The article analyses the dynamics of forest fires and forest burning in 2019-2023. It is found that the number of fires has significantly decreased in recent years, which indicates the implementation of effective fire prevention.

It has the ability to displace oxygen and combustible gases from an area, reduce the spread of radiant heat, or trap toxic or other particles from smoke.

Abstract:
The purpose of this article is to provide a legal analysis of the practice of the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) in the field of protection of environmental human rights from the point of view of the following key aspects: severity threshold, degree of discretion, positive obligations of states. Special attention was paid to the latest case of Klimaseniorinnen Schweiz and others v. Switzerland. On April 9, 2024, the ECtHR for the first time upheld a complaint in a climate change case. This is the first time when an international court has ruled on issues related to climate change, alth

Abstract:
Abstract During the construction of the Copenhagen Metro from 1996 until the inauguration between 2002 and 2007 corrosion monitoring probes were installed and embedded in the concrete structures. One hundred and seventy sets of corrosion monitoring probes were installed each comprising 4 mild steel electrodes; a counter electrode (platinised titanium), reference electrode, temperature sensor and a reinforcement connection. The overall objective of the installation is to have a prewarning system for corrosion in the concrete cover, so as to spot the onset of corrosion at reinforcement depth. Th

Abstract:
This report explores the impact of policy interventions and social/cultural factors on crowd behaviour at Reading Festival from 2000 to 2024, examining how crime and antisocial behaviour have evolved over time. While measures such as eviction policies, safeguarding, fire bans, and inclusivity campaigns like #LookOutForEachother have had positive effects, perceived gaps remain in security enforcement and drug prevention. Social and environmental factors, including media portrayals and festival culture shifts, have also played a role in changing attendee behaviour.

Abstract:
This study was designed to be an initial step to investigate the potential of low flow nozzles as part of a retrofit flashover prevention system in residential homes with limited water supplies. Not all homes have water supplies that can meet the needs of a residential sprinkler system. Current alter- natives, such as including a supplemental tank and pump, increase the cost of the system. These homes could benefit from an effective fire safety system with lower water supply requirements. The experiments in this study were conducted in a steel test structure which consisted of a fire room atta

Abstract:
In the framework of the D.Rad project, WP10 – entitled Civic education as preventive measure and inclusionary practice – seeks to prevent youth radicalisation through civic education and to identify new pedagogical methods and interactive, participatory tools for building pro-social resilience to radical ideologies. We consider as ‘civic education programs’ all those initiatives of instruction that aim at affecting “people’s beliefs, commitments, capabilities, and actions as members or prospective members of communities”1, as well as foster critical thinking and promoting “civic engagement and

Abstract:
As development practitioners, we must ensure that programs are implemented in such a way as to minimize gender-based violence risks for all participants. This involves understanding risk and prevention factors and implementing appropriate measures and resources to help mitigate these risks in order to guarantee that women’s economic empowerment programs give women the intended tools and opportunities without exposing them to violence. This guide is a tool for developing and implementing strategies to combat gender-based violence, and more specifically domestic violence. It is chiefly intended

Abstract:
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has disproportionately impacted homeless populations and service workers, especially within homeless shelter/hostel settings. To date, there have been few evidence syntheses examining outbreaks of COVID-19 among both homeless shelters residents and service workers, nor has there been a critically engaged summary of relevant infection control and prevention (IPAC) measures. This scoping review offers a timely and much-needed synthesis of COVID-19 prevalence within homeless shelters and a review of current and pertinent IPAC measures. Methods: We conducted a sco

As a global pandemic, COVID-19 has impacted food systems and livelihoods as a result of both economic and health challenges that emanate from domestic public policy measures, and also actions taken by other countries, mainly in the form of trade restrictions.

Many authors have deplored the scarcity of evaluations that assess the impact and effectiveness of programmes and policies in the field of Counter-Terrorism (CT) and Preventing/Countering Violent Extremism (P/CVE). This makes it difficult to understand which efforts to address violent extremism have had positive results, and what measures and methods have been effective in identifying impact. This policy brief aims to provide policymakers and practitioners in the CT and P/CVE field with the necessary background to integrate monitoring and evaluation (M&amp;E) in their work.

This project was asked how to measure whether good operating practices; such as proven prevention, detection, repair, and mitigation actions are the key management decisions which contribute to safe gas and oil pipeline operations. Integrity assessment inspections such as in-line inspection (ILI) or direct assessment (DA), are a reliable integrity check on the effectiveness of these practices at a point in time. Integrity assessment inspections, (Pressure Test, Direct Assessment or In-Line Inspection), support the effectiveness of these operational decisions. System reliability is improved by
