ISO has released a new standard on assessing fire risks. ISO 16732-1, Fire safety engineering–Fire risk assessment–Part 1, provides an overview of fire risk management, the steps involved in fire risk estimation--the estimation of the frequency and consequences of a risk--and the steps involved in fire risk evaluation against regulations, costs or alternative approaches.
The standard is available from ISO national member institutes (see the complete list with contact details). It may also be obtained through the ISO Store.
