What did the UL STUDY ON EFFECTIVENESS OF FIRE SERVICE VERTICAL VENTILATION AND SUPPRESSION TACTICS IN SINGLE FAMILY HOMES FIND
It is essential to control the exit door and to restrict introduction of air to delay flashover
Only way to go from ventilation limited to fuel limited is the water and vertical ventilation
30-90 seconds of water dramatically reduces fire development
You cannot make a big enough ventilation hole to localize fire growth or reduce temperatures in ventilation limited fires
Four factors that distinguish modern homes from legacy homes
Larger homes,
open house geometry
Increased fuel load
New construction materials
Modern home more allow
More air to support rapid fire propagation
New modern fires are ventilation limited resulting in
Different time temperature curve
Term
