Urban FRAME : Urban Fire Regulatory Assessment and Mitigation Evaluation Diagnostic

Fires cause up to 180,000 deaths globally per year. This is more than triple the annual average number of fatalities due to all-natural hazards. Urban fire risk can be heightened during periods of rapid urban development. Inadequate urban planning,...
