Enhance life safety and property protection using the most current methods for determining flashover risks in NFPA 555. With the growing application of equivalency concepts and performance-based designs, ensuring fire safety by evaluating the potential for room flashover, or full involvement during a fire, becomes an increasingly important task for the engineer and authority having jurisdiction. The 2013 NFPA 555: Guide on Methods for Evaluating Potential for Room Flashover contains up-to-date references throughout the document and provides the latest methods for evaluating the potential for room flashover from fire involving the contents, furnishings, and interior finish of a room. Methods addressed in NFPA 555 include:     Prevention of ignition     Installation of automatic fire suppression systems     Control of ventilation factors     Limitation of the heat release rate of individual and grouped room contents, furnishings, and interior finish<\/p>\n
