Abstract

This specification provides guidance for a comparative approach for fire safety engineering by providing abasis for performing comparative analysis of the fire safety in buildings. Information is given on how todetermine fire safety objective from pre-accepted solutions and how to verify design alternatives usingqualitative and quantitative fire engineering assessment methods. These objectives may include life safety,property and environmental losses. The aim is to create a more consistent and uniform performance-baseddesign process, and to give guidance on the use of a comparative approach.This specification is intended to be used as a reference document for building authorities and for use inconnection with regulations by consultants, local authorities and others in the building industry.(1) NOTE: Limitations regarding the use of this specification may be set in the National Annex. It isrecommended that this specification is used only for analysis where pre-accepted solutions exist forthe reference building. It is recommended that the methods are used to verify one fire safety objectiveat a time.The user of this technical specification must verify that models are valid to the relevant design situation andthat national requirements are met.
