Fire Loads

Large spaces, such as warehouses where internal loads are stored, exhibit higher fire loads and faster fire growths than general fires. In addition, the volume of the internal load reduces the space required for the smoke to stay, thereby accelerating the decline in smoke height. To prevent fire hazards in such spaces, it is necessary to evaluate the fire risk during the design stage. However, it is difficult to evaluate various settings because the evaluation method using the existing computational fluid dynamics utilize considerable amount of time. In this study, an algorithm was developed to evaluate the internal loads by using formulas related to the existing fire risk assessment. The developed algorithm is designed to easily calculate the detection time of the detector, smoke fall time, and sprinkler operation time. This algorithm could be used to design an optimized fire protection system in the initial design stage.

Background and Aim: This study tries to assess the risk level of fire in an educational environment by FRAME software in a practical method. Then, some effective strategies were proposed to reduce the risk level of fire and secure the environment as much as possible. Methods: In this practical study, the fire risk assessment was carried out in an educational environment by Fire Risk Assessment Method for Engineers (FRAME) ؛ this risk assessment was done in three sections including building and contents, residents and activities. It was tried to gain the highest fire security for the educational environment by using practical and logical control measures. Required data was gathered by studying and monitoring the situation, observation, interview, referring to available documents and measuring some parameters, regulatory inventory and checklist according to the requirements of the FRAME executive instruction. The calculation was done by FRAME software. Results: The results showed the risk levels of fire for the educational environment were unacceptable in residents (R=2.7) and activities (R=3.8) sections; although some parts such as laboratories, libraries and partitioning parts in the building section had a high-risk level (R> 1). Some preventive measures were recommended for reducing the risk level of fire and improving the security of situation by considering some effective factors؛ the results showed a significant reduction in the risk level of fire in all three sections within the acceptable level (R< 1). Conclusion: The results showed that the FRAME method can assess and determine the quantity of risk level and provide suitable controlling methods to improve the security of fire in the educational environment by considering the opportunities and challenges of the existing environment.
