OVERVIEW

This course provides the basics of Fire Safety Engineering. The lessons of the module Fire Modelling will furtherly focus on specific aspects of Fire Dynamic Simulation with FDS of CFAST.

AIMS AND CONTENT

LEARNING OUTCOMES

The aim of the course is to provide the basis for fire-fighting design criteria in harmony with the criteria of the performance design - Fire Safety Engineering. Particular attention will be devoted to the definition and analysis of the development of fire scenarios. These topics are the prerequisites to the final study of the protection of occupants from the effects of the propagation of harmful effluents (Smoke), with specific software.

The second module of this course ( 9 hours) is entirely devoted to specific aspects of fires simulations, in practice.
