To reduce human life and property damage at the fire in a building, it is most critical to control flame spread in the early stage. Fire spread prevention measure generally includes fire resistance performance securing of structure member in the arson zone and use limitation based on combustion performance of finishing material. The latter is most fundamental fire safety design to determine flame spread, but domestic combustion test determines combustion performance by specimen sized fire test method. Thus, there are many restrictions in the determination of combustion performance by composite material such as sandwich panel. Especially, outer finishing material uses a variety of composite material such as dry bit, aluminum composite panel, and metal panel compared to inner finishing material. Therefore, this study would determine vertical fire spread features by a full scaled fire experiment through the test method of ISO 13785-2, an international test standard.

This study is aimed to investigate the strength variation of fire-damaged reinforced concrete column with polypropylene by non-destructive test. It is studied to infer the recovery degree of residual strength of fire-damaged concrete. For measuring the surface hardness of RC columns, Schmidt hammer test is used. Testing is performed four-times: before fire test, directly after fire test, after 30 days and after 4 months.

This study presents on the fire hazard analysis of communication cable in buildings. In order to analyze fire hazards for communication cable IEC 60332-1, UL 94 and cone calorimeter test are conducted. The number of cable used to experiment is 10 communication cable which are generally applied to data communication in buildings. The results show that 9 cables do meet the performance requirement of IEC 60332-1 and 8 cables are V-0 classification. IEC 60332-1 and UL 94 test are inadequate for fire hazard classification. The various parameters obtained by cone calorimeter test such as HRR, peak HRR, smoke production rate and so on. Also it is able to evaluate multiply fire hazard for communication cable with cone calorimeter test results.

Fire prevention strategies should be aimed at the prevention of structured fire since average annual rates of structured fire have been increased due to economic growth resulted in increasing high rise buildings and multipurpose occupancies over the past ten years. Hence, this study mainly focused on the improve method and problems in the field test of fire detector in compliances with experimental consideration. And it leads us to the flowing conclusions : Firstly, it is necessary to formulate a safety standards on field test. Nowadays, the test enforced in many ways without formulated standard. Therefore it is necessary to be complete the arrangements standardized and how to do the test with formulated safety standards. Second, it is necessary to establish the regal guidance with regard to inspection equipment, ie density, component and temperature of test equipment should be considered. Also the equipment is need to be standardized and improved. Third, fire inspector's competency in their practice should be enhanced. The problems arising from the lack of knowledge and competence regarding inspection could be settled by providing professional education to ensure proficiency in their practice. Specialized training, as has been noted, should be offered in accordance with occupancy type, scale and fire protection system in the fire facilities.

Developed and conducted a performance test of the Water mist system that is satisfied with the requirement of a fire test requiring Class 3 Engine Mock-up exceeding net volume $3,000m^3$ as per IMO's MSC/Circ. 668 Appendix B(Test method for fire testing equivalent water-based fire-extinguishing systems for machinery spaces of category A and cargo pump rooms).Even though fuel atomizing was continued for 15 sec. after stopping of the system according to the test method relating to the atomizing fire type, no fire was reignited. This result shows the excellence of the system. There was no damage to the contents of the system after the test.

In Our Country, the fire safety design is done by the standard furnace fire test. This is haphazard procedure, as the standard furnace fire endurance of structural elements has little relation to the structural element endurance in an actual Compartment fire. The standard furnace fire test results, though obtained at great cost, do not contribute to the understanding of the behavior of structural elements in an elevated temperature environment and can not be applied rationally in fire safety design. The response of a steel and reinforced concrete structure in fire is a very complex problem. Therefore, in this paper is explained about tendency of study for fire safety design in advanced nations.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to show current states of domestic Precision Guided Missile(PGM) by analyzing Live-fire test results using general methods to get the Confidence Levels. Methods: Live-fire test results were used to get Confidence Levels of PGM. The Confidence Levels were derived by two general methods. The first method was Binomial distribution and second was convergence of Hypergeometric distribution and Bayes' rule. Results: The results of this study are as follows; The more Live-fire tests of PGM are performed, the higher Confidence Level of PGM will be estimated. And the number of Live-fire tests are related to a unit price of PGM. This results means that the increase of live-fire test, which is useful data for preparation and evaluation of Development Tests / Operation Tests for PGMs, is only way to enhance the Confidence Levels of each PGMs. Conclusion: This study shows the relationship between the Live-fire tests and Confidence Levels of PGMs and it will be used on Live-fire Test & Evaluation of PGMs for reference.

For The performance based fire design of the buildings, the fire characteristic such as proceeding and scale of the fire should be figured out but, there is lack of relevant information because of different conditions and difficulties of mock-up test like type of division space, ventilation condition, etc, in buildings. Therefore, in the study, a heal release rate etc, the engineering characteristic data value on the fire is proposed by mock-up fire test for division space in buildings. The mock-up fire test is carried out in a bedroom with 2.4 (L) ${\times}$ 3.6 (W) ${\times}$ 2.4 (H) m model. Initial ignition was started from trash box and the test was carried out for 30 min. As a result of the fire test, flame was broken to outside within 7 min and 50 s after starting the test and the maximum heat release rate was measured as 3,810.6 kW at 9 min and 34 s.
