WP1 - State of the art report
First “deliverable of the Action, which attempts to bring together the current state of research, mainly in the participating countries but set into the context of knowledge world-wide, is this State of the Art Report. For this document the material is grouped according to its relationship to the three Working Groups, and has been collated by their chairmen from theiur membership. In the case of WG1 and WG2, which are active academic research fields, the articles comprise brief résumés of key research topics, together with the current state of progress, and themes, of the research centres of the participating nations. For WG3 the baseline is rather different, being based on current practice and the regulatory régimes within which fire engineering is carried out. Hence an attempt has been made, via a detailed questionnaire prepared by Dr. Florian Block sent to individual country representatives, to bring together relevant information on these issues.
