Title: The Probability of death in the room of fire origin : an engineering formula / A.M. Hasofer and V.R. BeckAuthor: Hasofer, A.M. ‌
Notes: The paper presents a partial safety factor approach to the problem of evaluating competing designs for fire safety in the room of fire origin in a building. A partial safety factor is defined as the ratio of the design value to the characteristic value for a load type variable and its inverse for a resistance type variable. The safety criterion considered is the expected number of deaths in the room or the probability of any deathRelated records: En: Journal of Fire Protection Engineering, 1 (1), 1989. - vol. 10, nº 4 2000; p. 19-28Materia / lugar / evento: Edificios ‌Seguridad contra incendios ‌Modelización ‌Investigación sobre fuego ‌Habitaciones ‌Recintos cerrados ‌Otros autores: Beck, V.R. ‌
