A book entitled Fire Risks and Prevention Strategies in Hotels, which comprehensively addresses the fire safety risks faced by hotels, has been published. The book examines in detail the various dimensions of fire risk in hotels, which operate around the clock and are characterised by complex structures and high occupancy rates.
The book covers the fundamental dynamics of fire risk, the primary sources of danger in hotel structures, and analyses of large-scale fires that have occurred in the past. Whilst assessing the risk profiles of critical areas such as restaurants, laundry facilities, electrical systems and boiler rooms, the adequacy of existing safety systems is also addressed based on field data.
The study not only identifies risks but also offers practical recommendations for mitigating them. Topics such as fire detection and suppression systems, evacuation plans, staff training and inspection mechanisms are examined within a broad framework, providing insights into the development of a safety culture in hotels.
Combining academic expertise with practical experience, this work serves as a valuable resource for engineers, insurance and risk management professionals, hotel operators, inspectors, and readers interested in fire safety.
Aimed at raising awareness of fire prevention, the book stands out as a comprehensive reference guide for safer buildings and businesses.
