The nature and the complexity of building codes, including the fire regulations, result in
mainly manual verification and, therefore, in subjective potential interpretations or errors. In …

Designers must investigate solutions that represent the best trade-off between the results of
different design options. This entails a quantitative assessment of safety levels. Key …
