1. Different types of fire safety regulations
In terms of fire safety, the physico-chemical phenomena to be considered are :
fire development,
the spread of effluents,
the response of active protection systems,
emergency services,
the behavior of construction elements,
the movement of people,
the effects of effluents on people (toxic, thermal, visibility, traumatic, stress),
-
effects of fire on property/equipment/environment,
plus aspects of human behavior (individual response, gregarious behavior, etc.).
The aim of prevention is either to contain fire and its effects below the criticality...
