Overview
- Provides a means by which fire hazards analysis and the associated analysis process are invoked
- Identifies the input required from established calculations or performance-based design methodologies
- Gives readers methods necessary for defining output appropriate to evaluate a trial design against performance criteria

About this book
development. The approach presented in this guide was developed using the framework set forth
in the SFPE Engineering Guide to Performance-Based Fire Protection. 2nd ed., Quincy, Mass.:
National Fire Protection Association, 2007.)
It consists of three distinct parts:
1. Approach selection
2. Input definition and data collection
3. Results computation
Specifically, this guide was developed for use as a means to implement the requirements presented in Chapter 10 of the SFPE Engineering Guide to Performance-Based Fire Protection. However, material within this guide has broader applicability and is therefore not limited to performance-based design applications.
