Analysis Of Fire Statistics Of China: Fire Frequency And Fatalities In Fires [PDF]
Fire Safety Science, 2005 This paper presents an analysis of fire statistical data for China between 1998 and 2002. Fire situation and fire characteristic have been discussed with the method of average analysis, dynamic analysis and factor analysis. Analysis reveals that the government’s efforts to fire protection have succeeded to some extent.
