This research was conducted to determine the availability and adequacy of the active protection system in the Palembang Aviation Polytechnic area. The Active Protection System is limited to fire alarm systems and detectors. The type of research used is qualitative analysis with an observational approach to analyze fire alarms and detection systems as active protection at the Palembang Aviation Polytechnic. Data collection is carried out by observation and interview. Furthermore, a gap analysis method is carried out to compare the availability of fire alarm and detection systems installed in each building, compared to the expected conditions by applicable regulations, so that gaps can be known from the fire protection system in the building in question. The next step is to decide on the availability and adequacy of the building's fire alarm and detection system and provide recommendations that the manager of the Palembang Aviation Polytechnic may carry out. The results of the application of the fire alarm analysis in the main building are 0% with the inappropriate category, and the average in the study program building is 96.57% with a good category. The implementation of the detection system in the main building is 0% with the inappropriate category (no fire alarm and detection system installed), and the average in the study program building is 97.5% with a good category. Suggestions according to the priority scale are that managers make policies on establishing, maintaining, inspecting, and evaluating active fire protection systems regularly.

Abstract Design of new modern systems for low energy efficient construction in a passive, zero standard or energy-autonomous buildings, as well as the increased popularity of solid wood construction means intervention into the very structure of its statics, building physics, but also fire properties. Some prototype design solutions are not verified whether the tests, by good computational analysis or verification of long-term use of the building. In the context of changing standards in building design, new approaches are needed. If in wooden buildings the potential risk of fire is higher than other buildings, we need special methods, materials and practical skills.

When a fire breaks out, there is very little opportunity to flee. In minutes, a fire can grow and sometimes double in size. A fire can blaze out of control in less than 30 seconds, filling the region with heat and poisonous, thick black smoke, resulting in the loss of lives and property. This makes fire safety an important factors in build services. Fire safety methods play an aspect role in improving the structural stability of buildings during a fire. Student hostels require a fire protection system capable of protecting all residents from fire hazards. This study evaluates passive fire safety methods in hostel buildings. The study would provide first-hand information on the building and evaluate passive fire safety measures put in place. The study utilises qualitative analysis (observation method). Findings revealed that passive methods of fire safety implemented in the hostel building were not adequate to meet the standard building regulations. Thus, in the course of fire only active measures that are fully installed will aid the stoppage of fire. This study recommends that adequate passive fire protection measures should be implemented at the design stage to reduce the lost of lives and properties in the course of fire.

School buildings gather a large number of underage students, and the disastrous consequences of fire in such buildings are very serious, which is one of the key concerns of society in fire prevention and control. This study takes a “[” type kindergarten teaching building as the background and constructs a BIM–FDS building fire simulation model to reveal the fire smoke dispersion law under the coupling of the typical building structure and fire protection systems. The results show that the stairwells on both sides of the “[” type building are the main channels for the diffusion of fire smoke, and the asymmetry of the stairwell structure will cause apparent differences in the diffusion of smoke. Using the natural smoke exhaust in the stairwells of low-rise buildings does not aggravate the spread of smoke in the building and is conducive to smoke emissions. The high-pressure water mist system is superior to the water spray system in fire extinguishing and controlling room temperature. While it reduces smoke exhaust performance, it does not adversely affect personnel evacuation. This study systematically reveals the law of diffusion of fire smoke from “[”-type teaching buildings, which can support the design of similar building structures, ventilation, fire protection, and the formulation of fire escape plans.

In the past twenty years, many severe basement fires occurred and caused huge losses of human lives and damages to property in Taiwan. During a building fire, smoke at high temperatures and poisonous gases (such as CO) may easily spread through corridors and ventilation systems in the entire building. Therefore, protecting against the basement fires in commercial buildings is of important concern for Taiwan’s fire protection authority. This paper utilizes FDS (Fire Dynamic Simulator) to construct a computer simulation model for investigating the Cardon basement fire that occurred in Taipei (1993). The fire accident unfortunately caused tremendous property losses and heavy casualties (22 died and 7 were injured). The major important parameters of the flow field - such as speed to the spread of fire, smoke movement, upper layer temperature, and CO concentration are obtained to analyze and understand the fire dynamic characteristics. The computed results reasonably agree with post-accident reports. The simulation results obtained may be utilized to improve the better and safer designs for basement building fire protection capability. The information can also be valuable for the similar fire disaster prevention and mitigation in the future.

Abstract Engineering and technical solutions to ensure fire safety of the building and protection of people by deterministic factors have been installed. The object of research is a building of public social purpose. Constructive and planning solutions for preventing the spread of fire in the building of an object of class K0 for fire danger are diagnosed. The enclosing structures of the room must have a fire resistance index of at least REI 150. Technical solutions for evacuation routes and passageways, equipment that guarantees reliable protection from fires, communication in the building, ensuring procedures that implement the effective functioning of the fire Department to eliminate the source of fire have been formulated. Technical solutions for fire protection and communication systems of the building are justified in detail. Compensating measures are recommended for public buildings with an excess of the standard height and in the presence of six underground floors. It is specifically recommended to increase the fire resistance limits of load-bearing structures, stiffness cores – stair and elevator nodes and fire barriers to R/REI 180 and to provide the building with a type 5 warning system.

Full textAbstract:
Variants of progressive solutions for the use of efficient fire protection means for steel and reinforced concrete structures of the industrial buildings and structures are considered for the purpose of increasing the actual fire resistance and ensuring the requirements of fire safety norms. Distinctive features of the temperature regimes in the initial phase of a real fire from a standard fire were established when assessing the fire resistance of building structures. It is proposed to use such standardized temperature regimes of fire for assessing the fire resistance of building structures, as standard — in the industrial buildings; temperature regime of hydrocarbons combustion — for oil and gas, petrochemical enterprises, offshore stationary platforms; tunnel temperature regime — in the road and railway tunnels. Considering the operating conditions and performance of work on fire protection, the degree of aggressiveness of the environment, the structural and methodological scheme was developed for selecting passive fire protection for steel structures. Recommendations are given on limiting the use of intumescent paints for load-bearing steel structures involved in the overall stability of buildings, with the required fire resistance limit of no more than 30 minutes. To calculate the temperature over the section of the structure during its heating, the dependences of the change in the coefficients of thermal conductivity and heat capacity of fire-retardant linings under fire were obtained. Experimental studies were conducted related to the fire resistance of reinforced concrete floor slabs and slabs with an external reinforcement system based on the carbon composite material with various types of fire-retardant materials. The issue of protecting the lining blocks of road and railway tunnels from brittle (explosive) destruction of concrete in a fire is considered. It is experimentally confirmed that the addition of polypropylene fibers to the concrete mixture replaces the use of fire protection for the tunnels enclosing structures.

The rapid development of complex space steel structure buildings has brought new challenges to structural fire protection analysis and design. On the basis of analyzing the deficiencies of structural fire protection design in existing normative and performance-based design methods and based on the knowledge and research results of fire science, structural engineering, computer simulation, and other disciplines, this paper proposes an improved Gaussian transformation model and applied it to the overall fire performance analysis of this complex space steel structure. The proposed model is based on theoretical research and practical application of the simulation and analysis of the overall fire performance of complex spatial buildings. The coupled analysis model and system integration method of spatial overall structure fire and structure are established. The improved Gaussian transformation model is used to propose the integrity of complex spatial structures. It is a system analysis model for fire analysis. The experimental results show that the designed algorithm model can effectively realize the overall fire performance analysis of complex spatial steel structures and can provide a useful reference for China’s building fire protection research, building fire protection design, fire rescue, emergency plan formulation, and other engineering practical applications.

Hotel is a public living facility for tourists by providing room services, food and beverage providers, and accommodation with payment terms. Fire is a flame, both small and large, which is usually hard to control and detrimental and can occur in a place that we do not expect. Ensuring the protection of hotel residents is one of the goals of hotel business standards. Grand Kanaya Hotel is a 3-star hotel building in the city of Medan, with 152 units of rooms and several facilities that enable activities involving large numbers of people, such as restaurants and ballrooms. According to the quite high number of occupants, Grand Kanaya Hotel requires a fire protection system that can protect all hotel residents against fire hazards. The study aims to evaluate the fire protection system that has been applied to the building of the Grand Kanaya Hotel and provide references for fire protection systems that are standard in hotel buildings. This research is using the qualitative method that obtains from field observation and uses a type of descriptive research that explains the facts or existing conditions of fire protection systems in the Grand Kanaya Hotel building. The results show that there are several fire protection systems in Grand Kanaya Hotels that not according to the standards, such as the minimum size, the material used is not resistant to fire, and maximum distance lies, which still exceeds the maximum value. The study results are useful as information for other researchers and hotels regarding fire protection systems at the Grand Kanaya Hotel building.

Purpose The current fire protection measures in buildings do not account for all contemporary fire hazard issues, which has made fire safety a growing concern. Therefore, this paper aims to present a critical review of current fire protection measures and their applicability to address current challenges relating to fire hazards in buildings. Design/methodology/approach To overcome fire hazards in buildings, impact of fire hazards is also reviewed to set the context for fire protection measures. Based on the review, an integrated framework for mitigation of fire hazards is proposed. The proposed framework involves enhancement of fire safety in four key areas: fire protection features in buildings, regulation and enforcement, consumer awareness and technology and resources advancement. Detailed strategies on improving fire safety in buildings in these four key areas are presented, and future research and training needs are identified. Findings Current fire protection measures lead to an unquantified level of fire safety in buildings, provide minimal strategies to mitigate fire hazard and do not account for contemporary fire hazard issues. Implementing key measures that include reliable fire protection systems, proper regulation and enforcement of building code provisions, enhancement of public awareness and proper use of technology and resources is key to mitigating fire hazard in buildings. Major research and training required to improve fire safety in buildings include developing cost-effective fire suppression systems and rational fire design approaches, characterizing new materials and developing performance-based codes. Practical implications The proposed framework encompasses both prevention and management of fire hazard. To demonstrate the applicability of this framework in improving fire safety in buildings, major limitations of current fire protection measures are identified, and detailed strategies are provided to address these limitations using proposed fire safety framework. Social implications Fire represents a severe hazard in both developing and developed countries and poses significant threat to life, structure, property and environment. The proposed framework has social implications as it addresses some of the current challenges relating to fire hazard in buildings and will enhance overall fire safety. Originality/value The novelty of proposed framework lies in encompassing both prevention and management of fire hazard. This is unlike current fire safety improvement strategies, which focus only on improving fire protection features in buildings (i.e. managing impact of fire hazard) using performance-based codes. To demonstrate the applicability of this framework in improving fire safety in buildings, major limitations of current fire protection measures are identified and detailed strategies are provided to address these limitations using proposed fire safety framework. Special emphasis is given to cost-effectiveness of proposed strategies, and research and training needs for further enhancing building fire safety are identified.

Vertical occupancy, especially apartments, began to live the face of the city. Not without reason, housing needs continue to increase sharply as the availability of vacant land is increasingly limited. Occupying an apartment becomes a trend and lifestyle for young people. The reason boils down to productivity. The construction of apartments is usually built close to various activity centers, both business, commercial, education, health to entertainment. The improvement of building construction is not supported by the availability of land that is increasingly limited, especially in the city of Jarakta, making the construction of high-rise buildings anticipate this. The construction of multi-story buildings also increases the risk of fire. In 2018, according to him, there were at least 1,078 recorded disaster events throughout 2018. Head of the Jakarta Fire and Rescue Management Agency, Subedjo, said that out of a total of 897 buildings or tall buildings in Jakarta, 280 tall buildings had not yet accomplished the fire protection system (Dinas, 2018).Therefore, this research needs to be done to evaluate the lifesaving facilities and infrastructure in the building. The application of fire safety in buildings can be evaluated regarding to NFPA 101 (2013). Based on NFPA 101A: Guide on Alternative Approaches for Life Safety (2013), there are 12 elements of safety and Regulation of the Minister of Public Works No. 26 / PRT / M / 2008 concerning Technical Requirements of Fire Protection Systems in Building Buildings. The building that became the object of research is one of the buildings in the area of Jakarta mentioned building X and building Y. The variables that are the focus of the research are fire stairs, fire doors, and access roads. Based on the results of the study, the level of reliability of the means of saving lives against fire hazards in building X is equal to 58% and in building Y is 65%.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the fire performance in a multi-storey cross-laminated timber (CLT) structure by the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technique using the Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS v.6.7). The study investigates fire temperature, heat release rate (HRR), and gas concentration (O2, CO2). The importance of this research is to ensure that the fire performance of timber buildings is adequate for occupant safety and property protection. Moreover, the proposed technique provides safety measures in advance for engineers when designing buildings with sufficient fire protection by predicting the fire temperature, time to flashover and fire behaviour. The present numerical modelling is designed to represent a 10-storey CLT residential building where each floor has an apartment with 9.14 m length by 9.14 width dimensions. The pyrolysis model was performed with thermal and kinetic parameters where the furniture, wood cribs and CLT were allowed to burn by themselves in simulation. This research is based on a full-scale experiment of a two-storey CLT building. The present results were validated by comparing them with the experimental data. Numerical simulation of CLT building models show a very close accuracy to the experiment performed in the benchmark paper. The results show that the CFD tools such as FDS can be used for predicting fire scenarios in multi-storey CLT buildings.

Full textAbstract:
Hermetic pressurized buildings have been developed to reduce the effects of high altitude. The behavior and effect of fire in this new type of building have not been studied before. Unlike common buildings, the inside pressure in this new type of building is maintained at around standard atmospheric pressure, which is significantly higher than the outside environment pressure in high altitude regions. In addition, at the early stage of a fire, the oxygen required to maintain combustion in the sealed building is supplied by mechanical vents (if in operation) instead of opening windows or doors as in common buildings. This paper presents a case study on the behavior of fire in a sealed pressurized hotel building located in Tibet. Fire dynamics simulator (FDS) is used to study fire behavior under different design fire scenarios. Available evacuation time under different fire scenarios are obtained by analyzing oxygen concentration, gas content, temperature, visibility and other indicators. Based on this, a fire protection design scheme is suggested.

Fire can occur if three main elements are met, namely heat, oxygen, and fuel or it is called the fire triangle. Risks arising from fire incidents can be minimized by a fire protection system and the reliability of building safety systems. To ensure that the two systems run optimally, an evaluation and examination are needed on the existing conditions based on the applicable safety technical standards. This study aims to determine the existing condition of the applied fire protection system and to determine the reliability of the building safety system in the Ar-Raniry Multifunctional Laboratory Building. This research was conducted using a quantitative descriptive method. Research data collection was carried out using observation and interview methods. The observation method for existing conditions was carried out using a checklist compiled based on the Indonesian Minister Public Works’ Regulation Number 26/PRT/M/2008 of 2008 for fire protection systems and fire protection code from the National Standardization Agency of Indonesia Number Pd-T-11-2005-C on the reliability of building safety systems. The results show that the fire protection system in the UIN Ar-Raniry Multifunction Laboratory building was in the Enough category, with a value of 3.25. This is due to the absence of several active fire protection instruments such as fire extinguishers, sprinklers, and hydrants. Addionally, from the results of the reliability of the building safety system for the UIN Ar-Raniry Multifunction Laboratory building, it is in the Enough category with a value of 63.02. This is caused by the absence of emergency lighting and water sources as a source of hydrant water.

Problem statement. The analysis of fire hazard shows that fires cause significant material damage to the economy around the world, significantly complicating the environmental situation, endangering human life. Thus, in Ukraine there are more than 50 thousand fires every year, in which people die, and material damage exceeds hundreds of millions of hryvnias, incidental losses are 20 times greater. This alarming statistics is largely due to the increased fire hazard of buildings and structures erected and operated by changing production technology, increasing the number of storeys and building density, changing traditional and material-intensive technologies of building new advanced technologies with effective building materials from wood, plastics and polymers, metal, etc. Many of these materials are highly sensitive to high temperatures and fire. Thus, wooden and plastic building materials and structures under the action of high temperatures can burn, releasing significant amounts of heat and toxic substances. Metal structures under fire are rapidly heated to critical temperatures, which leads to a loss of their load-bearing capacity. The purpose of the article. Research of regularities at high-temperature heating of wood and metal, at burning and decomposition of wood. Conclusions. Fire protection of building structures is a necessary part of preventive measures aimed at ensuring fire safety and fire resistance of buildings and structures. The main task of structures’ fire protection is to reduce the flammability of materials and reduce heat transfer to them.

Findings. The conducted research to assess steel structures fire resistance under the conditions of a standard temperature fire regime and hydrocarbons combustion regime demonstrated the possibility of calculating their heating using the Ansys software package. It has been established that the fire resistance limit for the loss of steel structures bearing capacity without fire protection at a standard temperature regime is 2 times higher than at a hydrocarbon temperature regime, and with fire protection made of cement-sand plaster or Newspray coating - 1.2-1.3 times. Research application field. The calculated values of the limits of steel basic structures fire resistance with fire protection made of cement-sand plaster or Newspray coating for a standard fire temperature regime can be used in the design and reconstruction of residential, public and office buildings. When designing buildings and structures of oil and gas, petrochemical enterprises, offshore fixed platforms for oil and gas production, the calculations outcomes for steel structures fire resistance under conditions of a hydrocarbon temperature regime should be used. Conclusions. The possibility of calculating the actual limit of fire resistance of unprotected steel building structures and structures with fire protection under the conditions of a standard fire temperature regime and hydrocarbons combustion regime with using the Ansys software package was determined. The resulting nomograms of steel structures fire resistance with fire protection made of cement-sand plaster and the Newspray coating may be used to design passive fire protection systems at construction sites, taking into account the standardized fire temperature regimes, depending on the terms of structures use.

Fires in buildings have significant impact on communities both socially and economically. In education facilities, fire incidents have potential impact on research product lost. Fire authorities, practitioners and relevant bodies have been addressed this issue partially on the points of physical aspects and management addressed to fire safety. This study seeks the importance element of a framework that should be implemented comprehensively increasing building fire protection around the clock. Physical assessment on numbers of buildings have been performed, a questionnaire seeking for occupant’s awareness and knowledge toward fire incidents have been disseminated. Meanwhile, fire disaster models from a number of campuss buildings have been reviewed. The study found 4 elements of the fire disaster framework to be considered, including: the occupant’s fire awareness, means of the building, insentives, and control.

A systematic survey of compliance of the architectural and construction part of the project with fire safety requirements for basic indicators that ensure fire resistance and fire safety of the building was carried out. Engineering and technical solutions to ensure fire safety of the building and protection of people by deterministic factors have been installed. Structural and planning solutions to prevent the spread of fire in the building of the object were diagnosed. Technical solutions are formulated: for evacuation routes and exits, for fire protection and communication systems of the building, for ensuring measures that ensure the successful work of firefighters to extinguish a fire.
