<p>The growth and arrangement of existing buildings are sometimes not balanced with the readiness of building and urban infrastructure. The main danger of fire for humans is poisoning due to inhalation of smoke, about 75% of human deaths in burning buildings are caused by smoke, about 25% of deaths are caused by heat generated by fire. To carry out the functions and uses, the building consists of several systems, the system consists of sub-systems that form integrally in a single unit. Fire prevention is one of the building systems, which aims to save lives. Fire prevention is one aspect of building safety. To find out and assess the level of reliability of a building against fire hazards, a problem formulation is formulated, namely How to design a fire prevention analysis that can be applied to buildings. The conclusion that can be drawn regarding the design of a fire prevention inspection system and its application is, the design of a building reliability inspection system in fire prevention is one of the tools in assessing and inspecting buildings for fire prevention measures in buildings.

Although meeting the regulations of the time, early buildings are prone to fire hazards, such as damages to the fire zones, changes of floor entrances and exits, locked emergency exit doors, blocking of entrances and exits by vehicles, increased fire sources, dense population in the buildings, due to insufficient professional knowledge and technology in fire prevention. Once a fire occurs, it can result in major casualties, serious loss of social costs, as well as environmental and social issues. This study investigated 17 major fire cases occurring in residential-commercial composite buildings in the last 20 years in Taiwan. The fire hazard factors were determined based on expert review. The findings can serve as a reference for fire agencies in promoting fire prevention.

Лесные пожары относятся к главным экологическим факторам негативного влияния на лес и экологическую ситуацию. Увеличение числа лесных пожаров происходит в связи с многочисленными нарушениями правил населением, с глобальными изменениями климата и деградацией природной среды. Леса Новгородской области, территориально располагаясь между двумя агломерациями, являются незаменимым фактором окружающей среды. Обеспечение пожарной безопасности в лесах лесохозяйственных предприятий является одной из важнейших государственных задач. Цель исследований – оценка состояния охраны лесов от пожаров в Новгородской области, с использованием эффективных противопожарных мероприятий. Леса Новгородской области характеризуются средней степенью природной пожарной опасности. Территория области относится к слабогоримым регионам, а динамика лесных пожаров связана с условиями погоды. Лесные массивы на территории области представлены сосновыми и еловыми древостоями, расположенными на северо-востоке и самом юге области, в составе которых доля молодняков составляет 31,6%. Повышают пожарную опасность в лесах повреждения массивов вредными насекомыми и заболеваниями, неблагоприятными погодными условиями, рекреационными нагрузками и выбросами промышленных предприятий. Эффективность использования системы «Лесохранитель» позволило ликвидировать 85,5% пожаров в течение первых суток, при этом численность крупных пожаров за период 2009–2017 гг. снизилась до 4 шт., а средняя площадь пожаров составила 1,7 га. Разработанный картографический материал распределения земель лесного фонда Новгородской области по степени горимости лесничеств и по зонам мониторинга позволяет обеспечить противопожарное устройство объекта и дает реальную информацию для оперативной работы. Комплекс предложенных и используемых противопожарных мероприятий характеризуется как надежный и эффективный прием для уменьшения численности пожаров в лесах. Forest fires are among the main environmental factors of the negative impact on the forest and the ecological situation. An increase in the number of forest fires occurs due to numerous disturbances by the population, global climate change, and environmental degradation. Forests of the Novgorod region, located territorially between two agglomerations, are an indispensable environmental factor. Ensuring fire safety in forests of forestry enterprises is one of the most important state tasks. The purpose of the research is to assess the state of forest protection from fires in the Novgorod region using effective fire prevention measures. Forests of the Novgorod region are characterized by an average degree of natural fire hazard. The territory of the region belongs to low-visibility regions, and the dynamics of forest fires is associated with weather conditions. Forests in the region are represented by pine and spruce stands located in the northeast and the very south of the region, in which the proportion of young frogs is 31.6%. Damage to arrays by harmful insects and diseases, adverse weather conditions, recreational loads and emissions of industrial enterprises increase the fire hazard in forests. The efficiency of using the Forest Guard system allowed eliminating 85.5% of fires during the first day, while the number of large fires for the period 2009–2017 was eliminated. decreased to 4 pcs, and the average area of fires was 1.7 ha.

In Hong Kong, the number of parallel traders has increased quickly within these years. Passengers bring not only handbags as planned for the subway system four decades ago. There are heavy luggage put in trolleys carried by parallel traders. Goods include milk powder, electronic devices, food and drinks. The increase in fire load will enhance the fire risk. Although the subway management limits the maximum allowable luggage to 23 kg, the combustible amount is still large in train cars. Heat release rate (HRR) is the most important parameter in fire hazard assessment. A 1:15 scale modeling test was carried out to find the HRR in a train car under limited ventilation with parallel goods in this paper. The goods were simulated by a propanol pool fire. HRR for six scenarios with all closed door to all opened door were studied. Mass loss rate of fuel, oxygen consumption, air velocity and fire duration were measured. Ventilation was provided by opening different numbers of doors of the train car. The train car fire can then be ventilation-controlled or fuel-controlled. The burning phenomena of fire in the train under limited ventilation including steady burning, oscillating fire and ghosting flame were studied. It was found that the fire size and duration depended mainly on ventilation when oxygen was very limited. When the amount of oxygen supply reached a critical value (the fire at the decay period with continuous supply of oxygen), the fire tended to be fuel-controlled. Burning characteristics of train fire under limited ventilation were also observed. They were different from fires burning in open area. Oscillating flame, ghosting flame and self-extinction were observed. Results are useful to assess fire hazards associated with parallel trading activities. Three repeated experiments on the captioned subject have been done with average results of all experiments presented.
