Performance-based Fire Design

Performance-Based Fire Design is an engineering methodology that belongs to the class of fire safety design approaches, distinguished by its reliance on quantitative analysis and performance criteria to demonstrate that a building’s fire protection system achieves specified safety objectives, as opposed to prescriptive code-compliant requirements.
