This report, written as an educational feature in a mandatory course at the Fire engineering program, Lund University, is a fire safety evaluation of “AF-borgen” in Lund, Sweden. The report focuses on human safety regarding evacuation and analysis of possible fire hazards with the designed fire. Studies have also been made, where different parameters has been changed such as faster growth rate and
This report is a fire safety evaluation of Hagagymnasiet, a highschool in Norrköping, Sweden. A fieldtrip to Hagagymnasiet was made and different scenarios were studied. Likely scenarios were chosen. Dimensioned fires for the different scenarios were constructed based on the probability of the scenarios and hazard for people in the event of an evacuation. Times to critical conditions have been cal
The scope of this report has been to assess the fire safety, with focus on evacuation, of levels four and five of Arkaden in Malmö. The levels contain offices with a parking garage. An evaluation of the fire safety concerning fire development, smoke layer height and evacuation times has been performed. Different fire scenarios were studied and simulated in CFAST and FDS to estimate the time to cri
This report is a fire safety evaluation of Societetshuset in Varberg. The main objective is to assess the level of public safety in case of evacuation. Societetshuset is a three-storey wooden building constructed in the 1860´s which today houses different types of enterprises.
