Live Webinar: August 24, 2022. 12pm - 1pm ET. Fire
protection engineers generally have a good foundational understanding of
principles of fire dynamics, but some may lack the practical experience and
training to accurately relate post-incident damage patterns back to the fire
behaviors that created them. This
webinar will offer a basic introduction to important relationships between fire
behaviors and resulting damage patterns observed by investigators. Theoretical discussion of damage pattern
development will be supplemented with large-scale fire test results from fire
investigation research studies completed at the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco,
Firearms and Explosives (ATF) Fire Research Laboratory (FRL).
Learning Objectives:
- Understand fire investigation terms and concepts of fire effects, characteristics of fire effects, and fire patterns.
- Understand key transitional points in compartment fire behavior that may impact the location, shape, magnitude, and other characteristics of fire effects.
- Understand fire pattern analysis framework known as the Origin Matrix Analysis.
