This book was released on 1972 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Making a product or an area fire-safe is a complex problem, with many interactive variables. Flammable nonmetallic materials, ignition sources, oxygen-rich atmospheres, fire detection, and fire extinguishment are some of them. A systematic approach to this complex problem is presented in this report. ...The system described in this report was developed for the Apollo spacecraft, and is not, for example, directly applicable to house construction or television set production. The system can, however, be tailored to many industrial, commercial, and military activities."--p.1.
