A general technique for calculating the time available for safe egress from a fire is presented. A definite model of hazard development is introduced, and the details of the technique are formulated for the room of fire origin problem. The inputs to the model are the area and ceiling height of the room, data from free burn tests of characteristic fuel assemblies likely to be found therein, the anticipated mode of fire detection and a criterion for hazard. The output is a definite estimate of the length of time between detection of a fire and the onset of hazardous conditions. Examples of applying the calculation technique are presented and discussed. In the course of developing these examples some universal working graphs are generated.
