...Filippo Gentili; Luisa Giuliani; Franco Bontempi This paper focuses on the modelling of fire in case of various distributions of combustible materials in a large compartment. Large compartments often represent a challenge for structural fire safety, because of lack of prescriptive rules to follow...

... is represented by the magnitude of the probability to failure whereas the associated likelihood is calculated for all possible scenarios. The results allow the relative risk assessment of different design alternatives and the underpinning of sensitive parameters. Risk Structural Fire safety Event trees...
