- Abstract
- In order to protect our cities from the earthquake-fires, it is necessary to study on the outbreak of fires. At first, in this papers, it is explicated that the fire risk of fire-tools for heating is larger than that of fire-tools for cooking and bath-boilers. In this study, fire statistics of usual-fires and records of earthquake-fires are used for analysis and processed statistically. secondarily, the problems of early extinguishment in the earthquake-fires are discussed.
