Quantitative fire risk assessment for an office building

An Efficient Double Skin Façade for an Office Building in Shiraz City

Energy efficiency in office buildings has been the center of attention for many researches. This special attention is due to highly energy consumption in this building type. Refinement of facade and building’s envelop is a good approach to reduce buildings energy requirements. Double skin facade concepts are commonly used to achieve that object. Although the concept is not new, there is a growi...

A New Conceptual Model for Quantitative Fire Risk Assessment of Oil Storage Tanks in the Tehran Refinery, Iran

The purpose of this research was to introduce and describe a model for Fire Quantitative Risk Assessment of in petroleum Storage Tanks. A novel model was designed to determine the risk of a fire occurrence using of Loss Causation and Swiss cheese models. Then, based on FTA, model and its integration with our initial proposed model, the final model was obtained for fire hazard determination in h...

ارائه یک روش نرم افزاری جهت استفاده از ارزیابی ریسک در بهینه سازی اقدامات حفاظت حریق ساختمان

  Background and aims: The property loss and physical injuries due to fire events in buildings demonstrate the necessity of implementation of efficient and performance based fire safety measures. Effective and high efficiency protection is possible when design and selection of protection measures are based on risk assessment. This study aims at presenting a software method to make possible sele...

Quantitative Risk Assessment Model for Fire in Road Tunnels with Parameter Uncertainty

Quantitative Risk Assessment (QRA) models have already been developed and used to assess various risks of road tunnels, including the societal risk and expected number of fatalities (ENF). Fire in a road tunnel is considered as the most severe disaster in that road tunnel is an enclosed space. The risk assessment for fire in road tunnels involves a number of parameters. Some of these parameters...
