- typical building compartment fires representative of living or working spaces in which the height is nominally about 3 m; fuel characteristics; flow dynamics; vent-radiation factor; wall-loss factor; fully developed fires; behavior of compartment fire in buildings through analytical formulations, utilizing the interaction of fuel properties, fuel configuration (cribs and pool fires), and the compartment effects
