FIRES IN BUILDINGS
This paper begins with a basic introduction which gives an insight into the background of major fires that have occurred in buildings in history. It then details the purpose of why this report is necessary and explains that the most important thing is to understand why so many fires have happened and how prevention of fires through fire safety engineering methods can take place. Hereafter, a scope is given. The scope of this report basically revolves around fires in the twentieth century and covers fires in the United Kingdom, the USA, Italy and India.

Anteprima della tesi: FIRES IN BUILDINGS
The paper then gives an explanation of the methodology used. The methodology was through the use of secondary data collected from sources on the internet to find information that exists concerning fires in buildings and fire safety engineering as a whole. This provides a necessary theoretical basis into the topic.
The report then looks into four main case studies of major fires in buildings that have occurred in the recent past. These include: the Bradford fire in the United Kingdom; the Montecito fire in California (the U. S); the fire disaster of the New Delhi Luxury Hotel in India; as well as the Turin Movie Theatre Disaster

... External Fire Spread: The engineer should reduce the boundary distances.
Smoke Management: This will allow the use of open atria, the construction of an appropriate escape passage as well as the creation of large open-plan areas.
Fire Brigade Access: Engineers should increase the number of fire fighting cores to improve the accessibility of fire fighters in case of a fire. Here, engineers should the effective positioning of fire fighting facilities [1].
The above aspects should be used together so as to ensure the implementation of an effective fire safety engineering design.
