Internal Fires

Abstract

Fires have been a problem for every community since time immemorial. Fire chooses victims of human lives, of their health, of their property, threatening entire cities, but also ecosystems. For sufficient prevention, since perfect prevention is almost impossible, it is necessary to have as much knowledge about fires as possible and to know their behavior in the room and in the open. If we understand the spread of the fire, we can limit its consequences. An internal fire can be defined as a fire that occurred in an enclosed area of the building, in which persons, animals were killed or their health was directly threatened. An internal fire can also be considered to be a fire in which material damage has occurred. Slovak legal standards are focused on the development of fire safety of buildings on the basis of technical standards and decrees. This method is elaborate and functional and, in general, it can be stated that it covers almost all situations. The subject of the research are areas of fire origin, ie buildings.
