Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The long-term trend in fire death rates per million population has been sloping substantially downward for nearly every state since 1980. In the five most recent years analyzed (2000-2004), Mississippi had the highest average fire death rate, and states of the southeast accounted for 10 of the 12 highest rates, with Rhode Island and Oklahoma as exceptions. When these five-year average rates are compared to state differences, several factors show notable correlations, including education (38% of statistical variations explained), race (35%), smoking (28%), poverty (28%), alcohol (21%), and rural (15%). Alcohol use was negatively correlated: the more people who drink, the lower the fire death rate. All but this last finding is consistent with findings in other studies of socioeconomic and demographic factors related to measures of fire loss.

Download or read book Residential Fire Safety written by Marcus Runefors and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-08-27 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive overview of deaths and injuries from residential fires as well as the most up to date information on evidence-based approaches to reduce this problem. The volume serves as a guide for professionals working in the field of fire prevention and as a textbook for instruction in universities and fire service schools. The authors’ interdisciplinary approach, where public health methodology is combined with fire protection engineering, medicine, and policy science, is quite distinctive outside of the technical literature devoted to larger scale fire events. Traditional textbooks on fire protection tend to describe the problem as purely technical, whereas in essence it is a problem of human vulnerability. In this book, readers will find lucid and rigorous descriptions of various risk groups and effective preventive measures that are effective, both in general and with respect to the different risk groups. They will also find work processes to facilitate risk reduction. Summarizing state-of-the-art knowledge and giving guidance for the future, both in terms of preventive efforts and ongoing research, Residential Fire Safety: An Interdisciplinary Approach, is ideal for students, educators, and practitioners of residential fire protection.

Download or read book The Benefits of Behavioral Research to the Fire Service written by Peter W. Blaich and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2008-02-20 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Previously, Fire Safety Engineers worked under a simple assumption that when a fire alarm activated, people will evacuation immediately. It was believed that how quickly people managed to evacuate a building depended mainly on physical abilities as well as the location of the nearest exit and the behavior of the fire. But work by Behavioral Scientists has found that this idea falls considerably short. Research now shows that as much as two thirds of the time it takes occupants to exit a building after the fire alarm sounds is startup time or time spent milling about and looking for more information. Ultimately, such a finding has big implications for architects, engineers and fire protection specialists hoping to design safer buildings. Subsequently, after the 9/11 terrorists attack this new way of thinking based on Human Behavior in Fire and Emergencies is getting more attention and funding. Studying how occupants react as events unfolded and finding out what helped or hindered the evacuation efforts during the 9/11 attacks has provided invaluable information for future building designs. Ultimately, it is the author of this book believes that this is going to impact structured emergency preparedness in a major way. The basic premise of this book is that design should be human-centered because it humancentered design that provides for the information that people need to adapt to the chaotic and uncertain way that fire develops.

It can also be used to select priorities and help target fire programs, serve as a model for state or local analyses of fire data, and provide a baseline for evaluating programs.
