Fire Risk Assessment in Buildings
Original language description
Experience and available data indicate that the probability of fire start, fire flashover, structural failure and injuries in a given building may be expected within a broad range depending on the applied fire safety system. It is shown that Bayesian causal (belief) networks provide an effective tool for analyzing the significance of various safety measures. Moreover the Bayesian networks supplemented by decision nodes and utility nodes make it possible to estimate the expected total risk for both the buildings and their occupants. Input data for the influence diagrams consist of conditional probabilities concerning the states of chance nodes and data describing possible consequences of unfavorable events including costs of injuries. The submitted analysis shows that the expected total risk depend significantly on the size of the building and on the application of various fire safety measures including the arrangements of escape routes for occupants.
