Standard Guide for Obtaining Data for Deterministic Fire Models
The following bibliographic material is provided to assist you with your purchasing decision:
Scope
1.1 This guide describes data required as input for mathematical fire models.
1.2 Guidelines are presented on how the data can be obtained.
1.3 The emphasis in this guide is on compartment zone fire models.
1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard.
1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
1.6 This fire standard cannot be used to provide quantitative measures.
