Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An evaluation of operability and reliability of smoke detectors currently installed in military family housing was conducted. The evaluation was conducted at four different bases and included a sufficient number of housing units to establish a high confidence level in the predicted operability and reliability rates. The four bases surveyed were Tyndall AFB, FL; Columbus AFB, MS; Maxwell/Gunter AFB, AL; and Keesler AFB, MS. A total of 369 detectors manufactured by 12 different companies were tested. One hundred and eighty nine were photoelectric, and 180 were ionization detectors. Three hundred and sixty (96.7%) were operative. Except for Tyndall AFB, all of the detectors tested were installed in the 1970s. One hundred and five (55.6%) of the photoelectric detectors were found to be less sensitive than specified by the manufacturer. None were found to be more sensitive than specified.

Download or read book Investigation of the Effects of Heating and Air Conditioning on the Performance of Smoke Detectors in Mobile Homes written by Richard Bukowski and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its original promulgation in June 1976, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Federal Mobile Home Construction and Safety Standard has required the installation of at least one smoke detector, to protect the mobile home occupants. The location of the smoke detector was based on earlier tests in a mobile home conducted by NBS in 1976. Because of the limited scope of the earlier HIS tests and subsequent improvements in the design of smoke detectors and the construction of mobile homes, a new series of tests was conducted to evaluate the influences of the operation of central forced-air heating and air conditioning systems on the performance of smoke detectors representative of those which are currently being installed. The tests were conducted with upholstered chairs in smoldering and flaming fire modes, representing key residential fire death scenarios. Tests were conducted in both summer and winter weather conditions. The effects of detector location (wall or ceiling and position within. the bedroom corridor) and the effects of open and closed bedroom doors were also investigated. The report concludes that, for the scenarios examined, a properly functioning ionization or photoelectric smoke detector mounted near the ceiling on the inside or outside wall at the living room end of the corridor should provide an alarm in sufficient time for occupant escape.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) staff initiated an evaluation in 2003 to review the audibility effectiveness of smoke alarms in residential homes. In this report, sound loss of a smoke alarm signal as it travels in a home is examined to determine the impact this may have on alerting occupants to a fire hazard. Sound loss measurements of smoke alarm signals in actual homes are compared to sound levels required to alert adults (without hearing or other impairment). The CPSC staff conducted sound loss measurements in three different test homes using single station smoke alarms...".

Download or read book Evaluation of Fire Safety written by D. Rasbash and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2004-04-21 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fire safety is a major concern in many industries, particularly as there have been significant increases in recent years in the quantities of hazardous materials in process, storage or transport. Plants are becoming larger and are often situated in or close to densely populated areas, and the hazards are continually highlighted with incidents such as the fires and explosions at the Piper Alpha oil and gas platform, and the Enschede firework factory. As a result, greater attention than ever before is now being given to the evaluation and control of these hazards. In a comprehensive treatment of the subject unavailable elsewhere, this book describes in detail the applications of hazard and risk analysis to fire safety, going on to develop and apply quantification methods. It also gives an explanation in quantitative terms of improvements in fire safety in association with the costs that are expended in their achievement. Furthermore, a quantitative approach is applied to major fire and explosion disasters to demonstrate crucial faults and events. Featuring: Full international coverage and a review of several major fires and explosion disasters. Presentation of the properties and science of fire including the latest research. Detailed coverage of the performance of fire safety measures. This is an essential book for practitioners in fire safety engineering, loss prevention professionals, technical personnel in insurance companies as well as academics involved in fire science and postgraduate students. This book is also a useful reference for fire safety officers, building designers, engineers in the process industries, safety practitioners and risk assessment consultants.
