SCHEMA-SI: A hybrid fire safety engineering tool Part II: Case study
Source abstract
Abstract
SCHEMA-SI is an engineering tool able to evaluate the performance of building fire safety system. It uses a dynamic hybrid model, which means that discrete events and continuous phenomena are interconnected at every instant. The model has been developed as a tool to assist fire protection engineers in performing fire safety engineering calculations. This tool may be also used to conduct risk assessments and to evaluate the efficiency of selected design strategies in case of fire in a specific building. Part I of this paper describes SCHEMA-SI tool basis. This paper focuses on a real case study. The case study aims at evaluating and comparing four fire safety strategies in a French hotel.
