Fire Dynamics in the 21st Century

Fire Dynamics in the 21st Century is an award winning video showcasing a series of unparalleled live burn fire experiments conducted on Governors Island, NY in 2012. The New York City Fire Department collaborated with NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) and UL to design and conduct this study, which resulted in improved understanding of fire behavior in structures and the impact of flow path control on fire growth.. These findings also contribute to improving the survivability of both building occupants and firefighters.
