The many and costly wildland fires in later years have created a demand for better knowledge about the spreading of the wildland fire on to structures and how you should protect your home against these fires. This report is a part of a large study, “Analysis of the fire risk to structures in the southern California urban-wildland interface”, on these matters performed by the University of Californ

An evaluation of methods for caluculation of species as CO and CO, layer burning and flashover in a singel room fire, using CFAST, correlation models, Beylers equation and A1 Flashover. The models are compared with performed experiments. Swedish

Handling of sulfurdioxide (transport, unloading, storage and distribution) at a pulpmill. Riskanalysis of discharge of sulfurdioxide according to the CPQRA-method, containing both consequence and frequence calculations. Handcalculations for rate of mass release, evaporation and dipersion combined to express a formula for risk distance, simulated in the statistical computerprogram @RISK. Dischargef

The study is an evaluation of the fire safety level of category B High Speed Craft built according to the High Speed Craft-Code. To verify the conclusions and results, four category B HSC have been selected and analysed. The fire safety evaluations of the craft are presented in separate reports. This report summarises the results from the evaluations with respect to the fire safety measures and th

Studies of consequences due to two different fire scenarios in the plant area. Calculations on heat flux towards LPG storage vessel, distribution line, steel vessel and finally a storage tank containing peracetic acid. Design of calculation models. Time aspects to explosion, burst of vessel and failure. Loss of goodwill due to pollution and environmental damage. (Swedish)

This report summarizes the classification systems for surface lining materials in Europe and Japan. There is also a part including a discussion on differences, similarities and possible ways to link the two different systems together. In June 1994, an important agreement was made between the member countries in the European Community. The agreement stated that all member countries should have the

GIS (geographical informationsystems) is computer-based informationsystems with functions for input, processing, storage, analysis and presentation of geographical data. This means that data after processing and ystematisation gives information that may be presented as maps, tables and statistics, which can provide basic data for analysis and decisions. This report describes a theoretical backgrou

This report is a fire safety evaluation of the office enviroments at a nuclear power plant in Oskarshamn, Sweden. Calculations and computer simulations concerning smokefilling and evacuation are presented together with the results of a full scale evacuation drill. Results, judgements and suggestions to improve the fire safety are given. (Swedish)
