Existing fire detector modules providing a simple fire alarm function have many drawbacks such as high installation, management and maintenance costs, and low scalability. In this paper, an add-on type complex fire detector module with high scalability and functions of examining the receiving units for fire sensors and itself has been developed, which enhances the reliability, stability, and economic feasibility of the existing fire detector modules. Information on when and where fire occurs, provided by the developed module, enables people to extinguish the fire immediately and minimize the damage of lives and property and also to systematically manage the fire-fighting related history and contribute to the prevention of fire.

This study in focused on proposing the improvement plans for refuge and fire-fighting facilities in large shopping malls that are radically spreading. The main subjects are as follows. - The refuge measure for large shopping malls - Problems of installing the refuge facilities in stores and the solutions - Problems of installing the incendiary facilities in stores and the solutions - Problems of installing the indoor fire plug in stores and the solutions As result of the study, it has turned out that escape stairs which are set up according to the standard of size in the process of design plan, have to be decided for their amount, position, specification, etc, in consideration of the number of residents. It is also required to tighten a standard of installing a sprinkler instead of lightening the fire-fighting section in stores, considering obstacles due to facilities installed and procurement of the escape path. In addition, it needs to lighten a standard of installing the indoor fire plug, which is voluntarily set up at the store section incase of installing a sprinkler to make a practical fire-fighting facility available.

This study presents problems and improvement measures for the supply rate of single-alarm detector and fire extinguisher installed in households. Statistics from the NFDS show that 18 percent of all fires and 45 percent of deaths occurred in residential buildings over the past eight years. It was less than 60% that households be equipped rate of basic fire-fighting systems by 2019. In this study, I analyzed the law and statistics of fire to devise a method for fire safety. I proposed that the basic fire-fighting systems is be equipped in households. Like this : First, a free distribution policy for the over 60 years of age and Areas where is fire engine difficult to enter. Second, the policy of adopting safety pay in disaster. Third, the policy of expanding supply through the revision of the Licensed Real Estate Agents Act. Fourth, the policy of self-regulating installation by safety education and set up a data base system. Fifth make a law of household's National Fire Safety Standards.

In maned ship, crews may have risks as they manage damage control system in IPMS in damage situations such as fire in a ship. So the application of unmaned autonomous systms can reduce the number of boarding crews and attribute to safe marine transportation. The paper suggests an intelligent system of the fire fighting control using fuzzy logic in Integrated Platform Management System which can take measures against fire situation of a ship excluding unnecessary warnings with undamaged situations. The system here detected the fire more accurately and adopted more appropriate measures according to ship status compared with conventional systems. Of all, a reduction of false detection of fires was noted.

In this presentation, we study numerically an optimization problem of a fire fighting robot cooling system. The governing equation for the system is the unsteady heat equation with source term. We use a multigrid method for numerical solutions in three-dimensional space. We investigated the effects of various parameters and the results will be presented.

This research analyzed synthetically the characteristic of forest helicopter, fire helicopter, civil helicopter and deployment assets are in operated in forest fire places of our country. Looking at arrangement of helicopter, Chung-buk, Jeonnam has a number of outbreak a forest fire rather than others but it is weak of initial fire attack by a gap of helicopter arrangement. Geong-gi has many helicopter while it is a relatively few outbreak of a helicopter. According to this, We read to consider that Gang-won need to rent more a helicopters and civil helicopter in each weak areas by government expense. In addition Dae-jeon, Chung-buk and Jeon-nam need arrangement of helicopter after secure rental budget. Especially, Dae-jeon need to consider opening base of fire helicopter.

The fire fighting and safety research development program supported by Ministry of Public Safety and Security is composed of fire prevention and alert technology research, special disaster response technology research, and rescue and disaster-field response safety technology research. The principal accomplishment indices of this research program are (1) patent submitting or registration; (2) field test, ensuring performance criteria for commercialization, development of prototype, registration of software, royalty of technology-transfer; (3) the task to be carried out in a published research paper, and number of applied policies; and (4) the study period of task performance of employment and incubated high-technology manpower. Therefore, this study analyzed the performance result of a patent, research paper, and software registration of the fire-fighting and safety R&D program supported by Ministry of Public Safety and Security from 2012 to 2014.

This paper presents a smart firefighting appliances monitoring system based on big data analytics platform using GS1 for Smart City. Typical firefighting appliances are fire hydrant, fire extinguisher, fire alarm, sprinkler, fire engine, etc. for the fire of classes A/B/C/D/E. Among them, the dry chemical fire extinguisher have been widely supplied and 6 millions ones were replaced for the aging ones over 10 years in the past year. However, only 5% of them have been collected for recycling of chemical materials included the heavy metals of environment pollution. Therefore, we considered the trace of firefighting appliances from production to disposal for the public open service. In the paper, we suggest 1) a smart firefighting appliances system using GS1, 2) a big data analytics platform and 3) a public open service and visualization with the analyzed information, for fire extinguishers from production to disposal. It can give the information and the visualized diagrams with the analyzed data through the public open service and the free Apps.

From the viewpoint of fire-fighting activities, public building have structural and management problems in fire, so evacuation disturbance and risk of expanding combustion are high. As a result of analyzing various fire fragile factors of public building, The evaluation areas were derived from safety systems, fire-fighting facility, structure safety, general safety and the evaluation factors were presented. Also, the characteristics of domestic and foreign certification systems were analyzed by comparing and analyzing the status of fire safety performance certification system for 6 domestic and overseas apartment houses. In conclusion, the 5 convergence directions of certification system and 22 evaluation items by 4 evaluation fields were derived, and based on this, we have established 3 convergence introduction plans of fire safety performance certification system of public building.
