Purpose: Fires that occur during construction are infrequent, but cause great damage. Recently, with the growth of the logistics and distribution industry, the number of construction sites for new logistics warehouses is increasing, so it was selected as a research subject and research was conducted to reduce accidents at construction sites through the development of a fire risk assessment tool to quantitatively approach fire prevention. Method: A comprehensive fire risk assessment tool was accumulated by classifying the work in progress, classifying combustibles and ignition sources by grade, excluding air (oxygen), which is difficult to control, and additionally substituting evacuation safety. Result: Using the developed and proposed fire risk evaluation tool, excavation work with low fire risk, facility construction with medium fire risk, and finishing work with high fire risk were sampled to derive the result (CGI). Conclusion: In this study, it was possible to establish specific preventive measures and evaluate evacuation safety by controlling physical conditions (combustibles) and energy conditions (ignition sources) according to the risk assessment by developing a tool that can evaluate the risk of 14fire occurrence at construction sites. It is expected that in the future, through the application of the fire risk evaluation tool at construction sites, it will be provided as a criterion for establishing a process plan that can reduce risk and evaluating the adaptability of firefighting equipment.14

최근 우리나라는 건축물 화재의 지속적인 증가 및 지진으로 인한 화재위험성의 증가로 대규모 도시화재의 발생가능성이 증가하고 있다. 하지만 현재 이에 대한 위험성 평가 및 대응책이 공학적인 접근이 아닌 단순한 통계에 의존하고 있는 현실이다. 본 연구에서는 도시화재 시뮬레이션을 이용해 도시화재 위험성을 평가하여 향후 우리나라 도시화재 위험성 구축을 위한 자료로 활용하고자 하였다.

도시의 안전을 위해서 재해 발생시 대응 및 복구와 같은 사후처리도 중요하지만 재해에 취약한 지역을 사전에 파악하고, 예방적 차원에서 이러한 지역들을 체계적으로 관리하는 것이 점차 중요해지고 있다. 본 연구는 대도시 관리차원에서 필요한 방재지도의 유형 중 하나로 화재를 상정하여, 화재위험지역을 선정하는 기준을 설정하고 이 기준에 맞춰 서울시 종로구 창신동을 사례지역으로 하여 화재위험지도를 시범적으로 구축하는 것을 주요 내용으로 한다 화재위험지도성은 방재업무에 있어 지역성에 기초하여 취약지구를 사전에 파악하고 체계적으로 관리하는데 활용될 수 있으며, 나아가 지구단위계획 등의 도시계획업무에서 방재를 고려한 토지이용계획 수립 및 도시계획시설 배치 등에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

On the construction site, there exists frequently a high likelihood that a fire accident can lead to a large-scale disaster. In the previous studies, the diverse outcomes have been focused on the improvement of relative statutes and tried to realize the suppression and confrontation of the fire accidents. In this study, the limitations on the site were identified through prior research reviews, and the fire risk assessment checklist was proposed through the analysis of the massive accident cases. The checklist was divided into the prevention and minimization steps and developed into 16 categories of total risk factors. According to the results from the cases applied in this study, if the installation status is checked, such as removing combustibles, and broadcasting facilities for evacuation are installed, it is expected that the casualties will be minimized or zeroed. By developing a fire risk assessment checklist, this study provides the implications of the theoretical and realistic fire accident prevention, and supports the ways to minimize the damage resulted from the fire accidents on construction sites. In the further, deriving universe and common items about repeated occurrences of a work type will be needed as a subsequent research.

The fire risk and fire safety of four types of wood were comprehensively evaluated according to Chung's equation-XII. White ash, willow, fraxinus mandshurica, and sagent cherry trees were selected as test specimens. A cone calorimetery (ISO 5660-1) was used to examine the combustion characteristics of the test piece, and finally, the fire risk rating (FRR) was predicted using the fire risk index-XII (FRI-XII). The predicted fire performance index-X (FPI-X) and fire growth index-X (FGI-X) ranged from 469.03 to 1109.73 s²/kW and 0.0009 to 0.0280 kW/s², respectively. Additionally, the fire performance index-XI (FPI-XI) and fire growth index-XI (FGI-XI) ranged from 0.41 to 0.97 and 1.11 to 3.11, respectively. The fire risk index-XII (FRI-XII), representing a fire risk rating, showed that the fire risk of frasxinus mandsurica tree (FM) was very high at 7.60 (fire risk rating: D). And it was compared with Chung's equation-IX, fire risk index-IX (FRI-IX). The fire risk ratings according to FRI-IX and FRI-XII were generally high for willow and frasxinus mandsurica trees. Additionally, the results of FRI-XII and FRI-IX had a similar relationship, and the size of each fire safety rating closely matched each other.

본 연구는 지하노래방 화재 원인 분석을 수행시 기존의 전기기기들 자체 화재위험성 연구보다 주위 먼지들의 화재 위험성을 중점적으로 연구 하였으며 이를 위하여 국내 화재가 많이 발생되는 곳의 먼지를 수거하여 먼지(dust layer)들의 전기기기 위에서의 발화, 절연저항, 전기적 아크에 의한 착화 가능성을 실험하여 예방대책의 기초자료를 제시하였다.

We propose a weather-related service for fire risk assessment in order to increase fire safety awareness in everyday life. The proposed service offers a fire risk assessment level according to weather forecasts and a degree of fire risk according to fire factors under certain weather conditions. In order to estimate the fire risk, we produced a risk matrix through data mining with a decision tree using investigation data and weather data. Through the proposed service, residents can calculate the degree of fire risk under certain weather conditions using the fire factors around them. In addition, they can choose from various solutions to reduce fire risk. In order to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed services, we developed a system that offers the services. Whenever weather forecasting is carried out by the Korea Meteorological Administration, the system produces the fire risk assessment levels for seven major cities and nine provinces of South Korea in an online process, as well as the fire risk according to fire factors for the weather conditions in each region.
