Over the centuries, cities have become hubs of economic, scientific, administrative, and cultural activity, a trend that accelerated in the 20th century. While urban life offers many benefits, city administrations face mounting challenges. Streets are congested with vehicles, leading to noise and air pollution. Housing is scarce, prompting vertical growth and urban sprawl. Issues like water supply, waste management, and safety demand constant attention. Cities rely on specialized services such as police, fire brigades, and emergency teams to address these challenges. This book focuses on fire safety, an essential aspect of urban infrastructure. Over the past century, advancements in building materials, construction methods, and usage have revolutionized cityscapes, accompanied by significant progress in fire prevention. Yet, the risk of urban fires persists, making this topic as vital as ever.
