Case studies of large outdoor fires involving evacuations Part 2

Abstract

In this report, large outdoor fire cases from all over the world have been collected and demonstrated, to establish a large fire case study database. The case studies collected in this work do not cover all large outdoor fires, due to the wide space (worldwide), but these cases have unique advantages in exploring the common problems and differences of such events. Reviewing the fire development and fire rescue methods of past fires provides the lessons and information for decision makers to develop safety guidelines and suggestions for emergency management and evacuation planning. This report is expanded based on the first report (Ronchi. et al. 2021), and also prepared within the scope of activities of the Emergency Management & Evacuation (EME) Subgroup of the Large Outdoor Fire & Building Environment (LOF&BE) working group of the International Association for Fire Safety Sciences (IAFSS). Different from the 28 case studies collected in the first report, most of which came from North America with wildfires/WUI fires, the cases in this report came from more diverse regions (6 continents) with different types of large outdoor fires, including wildland fires, wildland-urban interface (WUI) fires, urban fires and informal settlement fires.

This report is prepared as a part of activities by the Emergency Management and Evacuation (EME) subgroup, Large Outdoor Fires & the Built Environment (LOF&BE) working group, (the International Association for Fire Safety Science (IAFSS) permanent working group). This is the Part 2 of "Case studies of large outdoor fires involving evacuations". Part 1 is here 10.5281/zenodo.4504852.
