The invention relates to a method for assessing the risk associated with a fire in a building, used to calculate the level of risk to which the building occupants would be exposed in the event of an accidental fire, in order to take accurate measurements that can be used to establish an appropriate level of safety. According to the invention, the level of risk is calculated as the ratio of potential danger to global protection level. Potential danger is dependent on the following parameters: number of people exposed, the fire tetrahedron, the characteristics of the occupants, and the characteristics of the architecture. Global protection level is dependent on the following parameters: self-protection plan level, basic structural fire resistance requirement, spread of fire, basic occupant evacuation requirement, basic fire protection installation requirement, and basic fire-fighter intervention requirement. |
