- Abstract
- The objective of our fire program is to reduce the high loss of life and property in the USA due to unwanted fire. More specifically we seek to develop guidance for improved life-safety systems for buildings, reduce deaths and injuries due to fires involving fabrics and related products, and improve the technology available to the fire service.
