Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the art of surveying buildings to determine not just their present level of safety in relation to the risk of fire, but also the steps that can be taken to improve it. Written at a time when industrialization and advances in architecture were leading to ever more ambitious building designs, this book belongs to a critical period of architectural history that saw buildings increasingly pushed to their structural limits. It provides an accessible and thorough guide to fire prevention for building owners, safety assessors, and anyone interested in the intersection of safety and architecture. By examining the subject from the ground up, the author lays out an exhaustive list of potential fire hazards and weaknesses that modern architects and builders can still use to inform their work.
