Since shortcomings exist in current design standards for building fire prevention,the concept and supporting system namely performance based building fire prevention design are put forward after they are compared with traditional mandatory design norm.
It has been suggested that the role of fire dampers be considered in terms of the total building fire protection system, but a quantitative approach for such an assessment has been previously unavailable.
This fuzzy synthetic assessment method can quantify assessment result of the building fire safety system, so that the fire precautions may be accurately adopted, and the serious potential risk may be avoided.
