Abstract:
Fire Data Management System, FDMS, is a system designed
to store and retrieve fire test results obtained from
bench-scale and real-scale tests as well as fire
simulation programs. By storing available fire test
values in a common format, this data is readily
available to computer models, plotting programs, and
report generators. An implementation of the FDMS for
data ranging from bench-scale test results to real-scale
fire tests is discussed.
