Learning from Real Fires (Forensic Highlights)
In full compliance with risk‐management approaches, lessons learnt from real events (both accidents and incidents as well as near misses and anomalies) are a fundamental way to increase fire safety and mitigate the reoccurrence. This activity is not only supported by the information and knowledge sharing activity but also by the methods available to conduct the analysis of real events. Some of them are very structured and standardised. Some of the anticipated cases are assessed to identify the main failures that led or escalated to a fire event in different sectors ranging from the maritime industry to heritage buildings. The use of the Fire‐safety Concept Tree is also shown as a method to allocate the observed failures to the main elements of a fire‐safety strategy with an obvious advantage in the identification of corrective actions for new projects.
