Design of Homes for At-risk Groups

The goal of this research is to integrate and provide fire safety design solutions for At-risk groups. So, determination of fire safety level of at-risk group has been considered as the first step toward the project goal by using probabilistic and safety index methods. As a next step, quantitative risk assessment method will be used as a tool with the ability in making risk-based decisions in operation to prioritize fire response planning decisions and to propose design solutions with respect to the target group characteristics. Finally, an algorithm will be proposed to develop a fire detection and alarm system based on sensor (sensors) data and artificial neural networks to detect the fire in early stages and improve fire safety level of available homes.
