Abstract
FAST is a multicompartment zone type computer model which predicts the smoke hazard development in each compartment based on a description of the compartments and the fire. A FORTRAN program has been written for the model. This user's guide provides a detailed description of the data input requirements and the output produced by version 17 of the program. Also included are sample program input and output.
