2. CFAST – Consolidated Model of Fire Growth and Smoke Transport (Version 6): User’s Guide
Series: Special Publication (NIST SP)
Report Number: 1041r1
Published: 3/28/2013
Authors: Richard D Peacock, Paul A Reneke, Glenn P Forney
Abstract: CFAST is a two-zone fire model capable of predicting the environment in a multi-compartment structure subjected to a fire. It calculates the time evolving distribution of smoke and gaseous combustion products as well as the temperature throughout a ...

Series: Special Publication (NIST SP)
Report Number: 1026r1
Published: 3/18/2013
Authors: Richard D Peacock, Glenn P Forney, Paul A Reneke
Abstract: CFAST is a two-zone fire model capable of predicting the environment in a multi-compartment structure subjected to a fire. It calculates the time evolving distribution of smoke and fire gases and the temperature throughout a building during a u ...

5. Simple Estimates of Combined StairWell / Elevator Egress in Buildings
Series: Technical Note (NIST TN)
Report Number: 1722
Published: 3/5/2013
Authors: Paul A Reneke, Richard D Peacock, Bryan L. Hoskins
Abstract: This report is part of this effort to develop requirements for the use of elevators in tall building evacuations. It describes a simple tool to estimate combined stairwell / elevator egress time from buildings. It is based on methods developed in t ...

6. Evacuation of People with Disabilities on Stairs
Published: 9/18/2012
Authors: Erica D Kuligowski, Bryan Hoskins, Richard D Peacock, Emily Anne Wiess
Abstract: The time that it takes a population to reach safety when descending a stairwell during building evacuations is typically described by measureable engineering variables. These engineering variables include stairwell geometry, speed, density, and pre ...

7. A Literature Review of the Effects of Fire Smoke on Electrical Equipment
Series: Technical Note (NIST TN)
Report Number: 1769
Published: 7/31/2012
Authors: Richard D Peacock, Thomas George Cleary, Paul A Reneke, Daniel Murphy
Abstract: A review is presented of the state of the art of smoke production measurement, prediction of smoke impact as part of computer-based fire modeling, and measurement and prediction of the impact of smoke through deposition of soot on and corrosion of el ...

8. Building Occupant Safety Research 2012
Series: Special Publication (NIST SP)
Report Number: 1131
Published: 5/17/2012
Authors: Richard D Peacock, Erica D Kuligowski, Jason D Averill
Abstract: Historically, building egress systems have evolved in response to specific large loss incidents. Currently, systems are designed around a concept of providing stair capacity for the largest occupant load floor in the building with little or no cons ...

9. Overall and Local Movement Speeds During Fire Drill Evacuations in Buildings up to 31 Stories
Published: 2/4/2012
Authors: Richard D Peacock, Bryan L. Hoskins, Erica D Kuligowski
Abstract: Occupant descent down stairwells during building evacuations is typically described by measureable engineering variables such as stairwell geometry, speed, density, and pre-evacuation delay. In turn, predictive models of building evacuation use the ...
