Fire Risk and Measures for Diminishing the Fire Effect

Abstract

Taking into account that the logical association between risk on one side and probability – gravity on the other side, we consider that the definitions for fire risk which are not referring to the gravity of their consequences, the single element being the probability, cannot adequately reflect the reality and do not have a practical use. At the same time, by defining the fire as a combustion with noncontrolled evolution (according unfortunately to the present trends), excluding any reference to its consequences, we consider that the notion of “fire safelyâ€
consistently loses its significance.
