Information Support for Decision-Making According to the Assessment of Fire-Fighting Distances from the Borders of Open Areas for PBX Storage

   The purpose of research. Information support has been developed for decision-making on the assessment of fire-fighting distances from the boundaries of open storage areas for PBX to various objects of protection, taking into account the effects of heat flow.   The object of the study is an assessment of the fire-fighting distance from the boundaries of open areas of motor vehicles.   The subject of the study is information support for making a management decision on the compliance of the object of protection with fire safety requirements, aimed at limiting the consequences of the spread of fire in the form of a fire-fighting distance from the boundaries of open storage areas for PBX to buildings (structures) of I-V degrees of fire resistance of functional fire hazard classes F.1-F.5.   The purpose of this work is to create and application of individual calculation formulas to determine the maximum permissible distances from the boundaries of open areas of vehicles to various buildings (structures) based on the use of a computer software product.   Methods. Methods of system analysis, management theory and decision-making, and numerical experiment were used to solve the tasks.   Results. The article proposes an assessment of the risk of harm to someone else's property and the determination of the value of the safe distance from the boundaries of open areas for storing PBX to various objects of protection by using the software product «Assessment of the safe distance from the boundaries of open areas of motor vehicles», aimed at improving the scientific and experimental and educational and material base of research, expert and educational organizations. The proposed calculation-based assessment of the compliance of the object of protection with fire safety requirements to prevent the spread of fire is aimed for practical application in the organization of activities and the exercise of powers by employees of the FPS of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia, experts, as well as owners of protection objects.   Conclusion. The proposed information support for decision-making on the assessment of fire-fighting distances from the boundaries of open storage areas for PBX will allow you to establish the risk of harm to someone else's property.
