Building Fire Analysis
#
ProblemA small recording studio is being analyzed for fires and a location to place sprinkers needed to be evaluated. A CAD Model of the building is available.
The building will contain:
Support offices (Floor 1)
Conduct a fire analysis of this building including building the fire model in 3D.
#
Fire AnalysisFirst lets go through the process of fire hazard analysis.
#
Identify the goal and boundary statements for the project#
Identify at least five assumptions related to the fire risk assessment to be performed.#
Prepare one or two objectives for each stated goal.#
Identify hazards,#
ScenariosUsing the hazards identified, develop at scenarios to be evaluated. Develop at least one scenario for each goal statement.
#
SimulationThe building has a CAD model that's injested into FRI3D FRI3D and the fire sources are setup in FRI3D. It is then simulated in CFAST.
The fire is assumed to be a standard growth rate fire with a sprinkler system in place. The sprinkler is assumed to be a standard response sprinkler with a response time of 60 seconds.
The output from CFAST is visualized in FRI3D.

The output from FDS is then visualized in FRI3D.
#Assets
The assets for this example can be found in the installation folder of FRI3D under the folder "DemoModels/Recording_Studio.fri3dz".
