According to the development of industry, many aspects of society have been changed and a living environment has been more convenient than before. However, factors of fire risk are increased because of society which is becoming complex. Moreover, a building built in recently is becoming high-rise and intelligent. Then losses of life and property increase continually. Thus, an institutional strategy which can solve this problem is needed. The purpose of this research is to state a problem of specific a building managing strategy and suggests a reformation of the fire safety grade system of a specific building. The suggested ideas are an adoption of fire risk evaluation of a building, tentatively named "Fire Safety Corporation" establishment, reclassification of the fire safety grade system of a specific building, and newly making fire safety managers of ultra-high buildings and underground structures.

The purpose of this study was to propose the categorized checklist for fire risk assessment on the wooden cultural properties and to carry out field survey. The survey checklist was composed of categories such as management and administration measures(management, training and countermeasure), architectural planning measures(site plan and facility plan), and equipment measures(fire-fighting and crime prevention facility). In this study, the field survey was carried out in the Nae-jang-sa and Wha-um-sa and it was found that there were some problems in the items which were assessed importantly by experts.

Multi-layered material (sandwich panel) consists of double-sided steel plate which is incombustible material or similar material and core material which is not incombustible material. In case of sandwich panel which uses combustible material as insulation, flames spread inside the steel plate at the time of fire so that it is difficult to extinguish fire from the outside and flames spread rapidly and may cause the building to collapse. The current Building Act requires the sandwich panel to secure fire-retardant performance according to the purpose and size of building. In this study, the fire spreading prevention structure applied to partial exterior walls was applied to multi-layered material and its effect was measured through full scale fire test and the possibility to secure fire safety of buildings by applying the fire spreading prevention structure to multi-layered material in future was presented.

It is reported that about 20 % of all fires in Korea are caused by the electric equipment and installations. In complex and large-scale buildings, the sizes of electric fires are becoming larger as property damage and casualties increase. Among the causes of various electric fires, fire by short circuit accounts for about 71.5% of overall fires, and in the classification by electric equipment and installation, fire caused by wiring and wiring equipment accounts for approximately 38.3% of overall fires. The purpose of this study is to propose methods to prevent electric fires due to short circuit by improving indoor wiring currently in use and to find the fundamental measures to prevent wiring equipment caused fires by improving the socket and plug which are commonly used in wiring equipment. It is expected that the electric fire prevention measures presented through this study can be used as a measure to protect many people and properties by eliminating the root cause of electric fire.

Purpose: This study aims to support the dispatcher to analysis the architecture type of fire. Method: Analysis the dispatch protocol guideline (released by gyunggi fire brigade) and make the dispatch scenario by site, combustibles, evacuation, fire extinguish systems. Result: After making scenario, develop the system (for dispatcher), is based on the tablet PC. Conclusion: Dispatch systems apply not only fire but rescue and disaster. This study focus on the fire, but It is need to expend the rescue and disaster. in korea, Fire Safety Evaluation and Multishop DB are possible to link to this system.

최근 대형화 고층화 복합화 등 점차 발전하는 건축물의 피난 안전성을 확보하기 위하여 성능위주 중심의 피난안전계획이 이루어지고 있다. 그러나 관련 법규의 세부적 기준이 없어 국외 기준에 기반하여 피난안전계획이 진행되고 있다. 특히 신체적 약자로 대변되는 재해약자는 전체 인구 중 17%를 차지하여 점차 증가되는 추세로 그 필요성이 강조된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 재해약자의 피난 안전성 확보를 위하여 재해약자의 연구 문헌을 검토한 결과 신체적인 장애보다는 장애에 따른 이동 형태에 따라 재해약자의 보행형태를 구분하여 크게 도보를 이용한 자력 이동과 보조기구를 이용한 조력 이동, 보조기구를 이용한 자력 이동으로 구분할 수 있었으며 연령과 장애 모두 영향 인자로 작용하였으며 연령이 높아질수록, 자력 이동이 불편할수록 이동 속도가 저하되는 것으로 분석되었다. 향후 국내의 현실을 반영하여 조사된 내용을 기반으로 실험적 연구가 필요하다.

Recently the consideration for occupants' security has been raised as very important design element from the fire by building's large sized, higher storied, and its compounded. But the domestic Laws regulated the predicative laws according to the technical standard which has no difference from the past domestic evacuation regulations. Therefore when big fire occurs, it is not enough to guarantee for occupants to escape safely. Specially since domestic escape relevant laws are divided into Architect relevant law and fire fighting relevant law, it has caused to bring various problems. So This study will show the problems of the evacuation regulation which is registrated in the Architect relevant law and fire fighting relevant law. And also later, when Architect escape relevant laws re-registrate, this study will be used as foundational materials.

This study quantitatively analyzed the fire risk of buildings by use nationwide, fire occurrence, and the statistical data of buildings by use. Fire incidents and buildings' statistics from the past 10 years (2008-2017) were used and classified as "Building Laws" and "Enforcement Decree of the Act on the Installation, Maintenance, and Safety of Fire Facilities" to be used for the relative assessment under the Natural Breaks as a risk matrix. In addition, after conducting risk assessment using 2018 fire occurrence data, we compared and analyzed the same with past 10 years' data. The results showed that most facilities had similar risk grades, except for the results of reduced risk levels from IV to II in recreational facilities, confirming the past and present data correlations as valid. Hence, the classification method is deemed appropriate. Through the results, the fire risk assessment of buildings by use nationwide are presented as a reference for fire safety.

There is a need to analyze various factors in evacuation safety assessment of building in fire. In the current performance based design, evacuation safety assessment in case of fire is being conducted through the simulation as FDS and Pathfinder. However, the location and size of the door, the location of evacuation in the event of a fire are not considered when design. Accordingly, it is difficult to determine the worst case scenario considering the actual fire. Therefore in this study, in this study, we will propose an appropriate evaluation plan through simulation considering the worst-case scenario that may occur in case of fire.
