Riskbaserad utvärdering av alternativ brandskyddsutformning av byggnader

In this report a riskbased method is used to verify the fire protection in a fictitious building. The purpose of the report is to evaluate if it is possible to use a riskbased method when performing the construction of the fire protection in a building. The riskbased method is used to calculate the risk, with respect to the occupants, associated with an accepted fire protection solution according to the Swedish building regulations. This risk is then compared to the risk calculated for an alternative fire protection solution and if the risk associated with the alternative design is less than the acceptable solutions risk then the alternative solution is judged to be acceptable. It is found that the risk method is practicable and useful. However, in a real design situation more investigations concerning uncertainties has to be performed. (Less)
