In this study, we considered the fire risk assessment of the temple using fire loads and the classification of combustibles. The building construction materials were classified as walls, beam-columns, floorings, ceiling panels and the loading combustibles were classified into fixed materials and movable materials. As a result, we confirmed that the total fire load of the Palsangjeon was $368\;kg/m^2$. The building construction materials accounted for approximately 93.8 percent of the total fire load and the loading combustibles accounted for approximately 6.2 percent.

The purpose of this study is to obtain the fire safety for underground commercial space with analysing fire loads and ventilation factors. It was adopted the investigation method of field survey with commercial uses for more confidential data. The results of this study can be summarized as follows; 1) The ventilation factor shows $0.04{\sim}0.24m^{1/2}$ and it may develop ventilation-controlled fires which have much fire hazard more than fuel-controlled fires. 2) The highest value of fire load is $158.48kg/m^2$ and appeared in footwear shop which has the value $137.35kg/m^2$ for unfixed combustibles and $21.13kg/m^2$ for fixed combustibles. 3) The average value of burning rates which mean the velocity of fire development and the fire damage range is 0.143. Therefore it is desired to decrease the combustibles of compartment and is needed the method of dispersion arrangement of goods and storage to steel cabinet and so on.

Purpose: Fire load analysis was conducted to secure basic data for evaluating fire risk of educational facilities. In order to calculate the fire load through a preliminary survey, basic data related to the fire load of school facilities were collected. Method: The basic data were the definition and types of fire loads, combustion heat data for the calculation of fire loads. The fire load was evaluated by multiplying the combustion heat by the weight of the combustibles in the compartment when calculating the fire load. Result: As for the fixed combustible materials of A-elementary school, the floor was mainly made of wood, in consideration of emotion and safety in the classroom, music room, and school office, and the rest of the compartments were made of stone. The ceiling and walls were made of gypsum board and concrete, so they were not combustible. The typical inflammable items in each room were desks, chairs, and lockers in the classroom, and the laboratory equipment box and experimental tool box were the main components in the science room, and books, bookshelves, and reading equipment occupied a large proportion in the library room. Conclusion: 'The fire loads of A-elementary' schools according to the combustibles loaded were in the order of library, computer room, English learning room, teacher's office, general classroom, science hall, and music room.

최근 건축물에서 공동주택의 비율이 증가하고 있으며 동시에 공동주택의 화재비율도 증가하는 경향을 보이고 있다. 또한 화재 시 인명 피해의 주원인인 가연물은 소재가 다양화되고 있으나 안정성 보다는 디자인, 기능성에 치중되어 그에 따른 화재 위험성도 커져가고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 전보의 실내장식물에 이어 공동주택에서 많이 사용되어지는 적재가연물을 가연물 조사를 바탕으로 선정하여 Furniture Calorimeter를 이용해 그 연소특성을 알아보았다. 그 결과, 소파가 타 시료에 비해 화재 시 높은 위험성을 나타냈으며, 일본건축학회에 발표된 데이터와 비교한 결과 소파의 데이터가 유사한 것으로 나타났다.

최근 주거시설의 내장재는 다양화 되어 가고 있지만 안정성 보다는 디자인, 기능성에 치중되어 그에 따른 화재 위험성도 커져가고 있다. 또한 여러 가지 합성수지로 예상치 못한 화재성상을 보이고 있으나 이에 따른 법규는 미비한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구는 고정가연물중 주거시설에서 많이 사용되어지는 시료를 선정하여 Cone Calorimeter를 이용해 그 연소특성을 알아보았다. 그에 따른 결과로 바닥재는 국내산이 높은 발열량을 보였고 벽지는 국외산이 높은 발열량을 보였다.

The occurrence of fire in rack-type warehouses may either lead to the warehouses getting entirely burned up or collapsing. This can be attrubuted to the high height of rack-type warehouses, in which combustibles are generally vertically stacked. These characteristics make it difficult to detect a fire early; because detectors are installed on the ceiling, these fires cannot be extinguished at an early stage. In this study, the flow of heat and smoke generated by a fire in a rack-type warehouse was analyzed using a fire dynamic simulator. Through this analysis, the optimal installation conditions of fire detectors for the early detection of fire in rack-type warehouses were confirmed. The analysis results confirmed that complex detection of heat and smoke is required for the early detection of fire in rack type warehouses. Furthermore, it was found that fixed temperature detectors are not suitable for these warehouses, resulting in the need to install heat-smoke hybrid detectors at every three rack levels.
