Solving Spacing Distances of a Selected Object Using a Prescriptive Approach and Modelling Tools

Abstract

The article deals with the solution of a selected part of the fire safety of buildings, namely spacing distances, in a selected fire section of a flat. This problem is solved in two ways, namely by a prescriptive approach using STN 92 0201 - 4 and by using the modelling tool PyroSim. Specifically, this paper contains the first part of the solution to the problem, namely a description of the calculation of spacing distances using the prescriptive approach. This article aims to highlight the differences that arise in the determination of spacing distances when some input data are changed and to compare them with the results of simulations.
