A method to evaluate fire water supply partitions in super high - rise buildings

Abstract

Buildings are getting higher with the development of economic, which brings big challenges to fire water supply systems in super high-rise buildings. Establishing a method to evaluate fire water supply partitions is helpful to solve new problems in the design of fire water supply systems and provides qualitative and quantitative results and suggestions. According to different dividing forms for fire water supply partitions, this paper established a systematic evaluation method in super high-rise buildings to evaluate fire water supply partitions based on reliability analysis. The evaluation includes direct evaluation and comprehensive evaluation. The direct evaluation compares designs with significant unsafe factors to mandatory provisions in current national standards and codes. The comprehensive evaluation can be carried out with different indexes for multi-factor evaluation, and the reliability of components in the system can be calculated as well.
