Relative Benefit Assessment of Fire Protection System Changes

Abstract

With the rapidly expanding variety of fire protection technologies competing for limited R&D budgets, facilities, and expertise, it has become necessary to develop a system benefit assessment methodology for use in R&D efforts. Such a methodology is necessary to compare, rate, and evaluate these competing technologies in order to select the most promising for further development, to assess the potential benefits and costs for each, and to develop a rational developmental funding profile for each technology and an overall R&D program as a whole. The purpose of this discussion will be to present recent findings and to discuss future efforts.
