There has been a considerable development of fire safety engineering design, especially as it relates to construction projects
37、, as well as the development of concepts related to performance-based design. With this continuing evolution, there is an increasing need for agreement on a common language in the broad and expanding area of fire safety, beyond what traditionally has been limited to the field of fire testing.The fir
38、st edition of this vocabulary, ISO 13943:2000, contained definitions of about 180 terms. However, the areas of technology that are related to fire safety have continued to evolve rapidly and this edition contains many new terms and their definitions, as well as revised definitions of some of the ter
39、ms that were in earlier editions.This document defines general terms to establish a vocabulary applicable to fire safety, including fire safety in buildings and civil engineering works and other elements within the built environment. It will be updated as terms and definitions for further concepts i
40、n the field of fire safety are agreed upon and developed.It is important to note that, it is possible that, when used for regulation, some fire safety terms may have a somewhat different interpretation than the one used in this document and, in that case, the definition given in this document may no
41、t apply.The terms in this document are fundamental concepts, more specific concepts, such as those used specifically in fire testing or in fire safety engineering and may be used in ISO or IEC fire standards, and related concepts, as exemplified by terms used in building and civil engineering.Annex
42、A provides an index of deprecated terms.The layout is designed according to ISO 10241-1, unless otherwise specified. The terms are presented in English alphabetical order and are in bold type except for deprecated terms, which are in normal type.Use of the term “item”For the purposes of this documen
43、t, in the English version, the term “item” (and in French “objet”) is used in a general meaning to represent any single object or assembly of objects, and may cover, for example, material, product, assembly, structure or building, as required in the context of any individual definition.If the “item”
44、 under consideration is a test specimen, then the term “test specimen” is used.The German version uses terminology such as material, product, kit, assembly and/or building to clarify the meaning of each definition.
