Fire Safety is the science of fire and the means of protection against it. Being multidisciplinary in nature, the subject is closely related to chemical engineering, building services, electrical, electronics, structural and civil engineering and industrial engineering. There is a dearth of books on this subject, and therefore, the author aims to provide readers with a lucidly written, comprehensive text explaining the fundamentals of the fire process and means of protection. Comprising twelve chapters, this well-illustrated book with data tables begins with the introduction of the subject and then proceeds to explain fire process, its chemistry, heat and temperature in fire, hydraulics, active and passive fire protection systems, risk management and insurance, and finally investigations and reconstructions of fire incidents. The book appends useful information on fire safety including cases to explain the causes of fire, Indian Standards on fire safety, explosion and properties of some flammable materials. NEW TO THE SECOND EDITION • A chapter on Modelling for Fire Safety • Updated data tables and text wherever necessary TARGET AUDIENCE B.Tech. (Safety and Fire Engineering) B.Tech.

Ventilation can make or break the outcome of a fire. Ensuring its success requires a knowledge of how it works and what precautions must be taken. Coordinating Ventilation: Supporting Extinguishment and Survivability examines ventilation and its relationship to fire behavior to identify how it affects the fire, operations, and—most importantly—victim survivability. Ventilation can be universally applied, from the smallest rural community to the largest metropolitan city. FEATURES: --Guiding principles and practices to help streamline your decision-making process and improve our overall effectiveness and efficiency --Common pitfalls and the associated misconceptions to reduce potential errors and avoidable losses --A functional understanding of ventilation and the methods for its execution so that you can make the right call for your fireground WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING: “As you read Coordinating Ventilation, Nicholas Papa not only shares his knowledge and experience, but the credible experiences of fire service professionals who have practiced the successes and failures of ventilation as to what is appropriate to the how, when, where, and why.” —Gerald “Jerry” Tracy, Battalion Commander, FDNY (ret.) "Nick Papa left me with an immediate impression of a street-smart firefighter and an educator who gets fire behaviour in the most realist of terms. He imparts his messages through golden tactical nuggets learned, not only through intensive study, but also with practical, first-hand experience. Nick will undoubtedly be a great fire service educator for decades to come, so take every opportunity to listen to his message." —Paul Grimwood, Crew Commander, London Fire Brigade (ret.) “Nick Papa does a fantastic job of taking scientific concepts and language and making them understandable in execution on the fireground. This is not an easy task. I highly recommend this book as a practical application tool for the coordination of tactical objectives on the fireground.” —Chris Stewart, Deputy Chief, Phoenix Fire Department
