Fire Safety Evaluation System for National Park Service Overnight Accommodations

摘要

A fire safety evaluation system for overnight accommodations has been developed and is ready for use in evaluating the fire safety of National Park Service residential accommodations. The system can be used to determine combinations of widely accepted fire safety equipment and building construction features that provide a level of safety equivalent to that required by the Life Safety Code of the National Fire Protection Association. An approach for controlling smoke from fires in atrium-like arrangements is also presented.
