Inhaltsangabe:

By tackling an overview of the factors which contribute to fire risk, and how building design can limit these, the reader will gain a fuller understanding of the science behind fire regulations, safe design, and construction solutions. Avoiding complex calculations and specifications, this book is ideal for architects, building control officers and other construction professionals without fire engineering backgrounds. Also includes overviews of the fire regulations in the UK, USA and China.
