A Program for Survey of Fire Loads and Live Loads in Office Buildings

C. Culver / J. Kushner

The development of a survey program for determining the fire loads and live loads in office buildings is described. Considerations involved in planning the program which is directed toward establishing the factors affecting the loads in buildings are presented. The type of data to be collected and a data collection technique which utilizes visually observed information on the characteristics of building content items to determine weight are discussed. Procedures employed to select buildings to be included in a nation-wide office building load survey being conducted by the National Bureau of Standards and a sampling plan for selecting rooms to be surveyed in these buildings are also discussed.
