I am trying to understand the fuel loads of a residential building (or any other type of occupancy) in a formal and an informal settlement. Please suggest some literature in English and possibly open-access journals.
Thanks
Formal Settlement:
1. Determine the total square footage of the building. 2. Calculate the approximate number of fuel-burning appliances in the building. 3. Multiply the total square footage by the approximate number of fuel-burning appliances to determine the approximate fuel load.
Informal Settlement: 1. Determine the total square footage of the building. 2. Calculate the approximate number of fuel-burning appliances in the building, factoring in the potential for more fuel-burning appliances in informal settlements. 3. Multiply the total square footage by the approximate number of fuel-burning appliances to determine the approximate fuel load.
when it comes to fire safety, to calculate the fire load, in Brazil, we use this approach according to the normative instruction of the Fire Department of Santa Catarina. Here is the link to the public document.
