The report is a summary and initial analysis of the sixty-five fire incidents included in the study population of Project People II. The fire incidents have been analyzed to present in tabular form the descriptive characteristics of the facilities with the construction, interior finish, and fire zone features shown. Staff and fire department behavioral actions were summarized and are presented in another table, with the number of persons evacuated, the means of evacuation, the extinguishment behavior, the closing of doors and the ventilation of smoke through the facility windows.
