Engineering Guide: Fire Risk Assessment

This guide provides guidance fro the use of risk assessment methodologies in the design and assessment of building and/or process fire safety.  This guide's intent is to:
provide qualified practitioners with a means to select and use fire risk assessment methodologies in the design and assessment of fire safety.
provide a means for project stakeholders to address fire risk acceptability
provide information on the role of fire risk assessment in the fire safety design process
identify the role of fire risk assessment in the broader spectrum of risk management
establish a recommended process for the use of risk assessment methodologies and provide references to available detailed sources of information on risk assessment methodologies, procedures, and data sources.  However, it does not provide specific fire risk assessment methodologies or tools, nor does it provide specific data or acceptability thresholds for use in the risk assessment process.
