It explains the water supply requirements for firefighting including rate of flow, the residual pressure required at that flow, and the duration that is necessary to control a major fire in a specific structure. First reviewing existing fire flow calculation methodologies in the U.S. and globally, the authors determine the new information necessary to validate the existing fire flow calculation methodologies. After identifying 19 methods from the U.S., UK, France, Germany, the Netherlands, New England, and Canada, two types of methods are evaluated: those for building planning based on fire and building code requirements, and those for on-scene fire service use. Building planning methods are also examined, including an explanation of the range of building variables that determine fire flow. A survey form for fire departments is provided to help fire departments identify key predictive features based on construction and building parameters. Researchers and professionals in fire engineering will find the recommendations in Evaluation of Fire Flow Methodologies valuable. 000733566 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed August 13, 2015). 000733566 650_0 $$aFire extinction$$xWater-supply$$xMathematical models$$xMethodology. 000733566 7001_ $$aScheffey, Joseph L.,$$eauthor. 000733566 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9781493928880 000733566 830_0 $$aSpringerBriefs in fire. 000733566 85280 $$bebk$$hSpringerLink 000733566 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-1-4939-2889-7$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000733566 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:733566$$pGLOBAL_SET 000733566 980__ $$aEBOOK 000733566 980__ $$aBIB 000733566 982__ $$aEbook 000733566 983__ $$aOnline 000733566 994__ $$a92$$bISE
