Book Description
Large outdoor fires have the potential to negatively impact the built environment. Wildland fires that spread into communities, known as wildland-urban interface (WUI) fires, have become a global problem. Large urban fires, including those that have occurred after earthquakes, are another example of large outdoor fires. Once a WUI fire reaches a community, a large urban fire may develop. Presentations were delivered related to national and regional summaries from across the globe of large outdoor fire standards intended to make communities less vulnerable to these fires. Understanding from these national and regional summaries will be used as a basis for future standardization work on this topic in ISO TC92.

Book Description
Large outdoor fires present a risk to the built environment. In this workshop, presentations highlighted large outdoor fires throughout the world, and explored common characteristics between these fires. Specifically, each presentation provided an overview of the large outdoor fire risk to the built environment from each region, and highlighted critical research needs for this problem in the context of fire safety science. The workshop seeks to develop the foundation for an international research needs roadmap to reduce the risk of large outdoor fires to the built environment. This workshop also provided a forum for next generation researchers to contribute to this important topic.

Book Description
The kickoff workshop of the new permanent working group, sponsored by the International Association for Fire Safety Science (IAFSS), entitled Large Outdoor Fires and the Built Environment was held from 3:00 pm to 4:30 pm on Sunday October 21, 2018. The workshop was held as a part of the 11th Asia-Oceania Symposium on Fire Science and Technology (AOSFST) in Taipei, Taiwan. The working group is co-led by Sara McAllister of the U.S. Forest Service (unable to come to Taiwan), Sayaka Suzuki of National Research Institute of Fire and Disaster, and Samuel L. Manzello of NIST's Engineering Laboratory. The IAFSS permanent working group consists of three subgroups, with subleaders appointed by Manzello, McAllister, and Suzuki, and these are prioritized into the following topics: Ignition Resistant Communities (IRC - led by Elsa Pastor, UPC, unable to come to Taiwan), Emergency Management and Evacuation (EME, led by Enrico Ronchi, Lund University, unable to come to Taiwan), and Large Outdoor Firefighting (LOFF, led by Raphaele Blanchi, CSIRO). The IRC subgroup is focused on developing the scientific basis for new standard testing methodologies indicative of large outdoor fire exposures, including the development of necessary testing methodologies to characterize wildland fuel treatments adjacent to communities. The EME subgroup is focused on developing the scientific basis for effective emergency management strategies for communities exposed to large outdoor fires. The LOFF subgroup is providing a review of various tactics that are used, as well as the various personal protective equipment (PPE), and suggest pathways for research community engagement, including environmental issues in suppressing these fires. The overall objectives are to bring the full depth of knowledge of the IAFSS community to work on these priority topics. At the kickoff workshop, detailed ideas were presented regarding the planned activities of the working group, especially the large workshop to be held at IAFSS 2020.

Book Description
A workshop of the permanent working group, sponsored by the International Association for Fire Safety Science (IAFSS), entitled Large Outdoor Fires and the Built Environment (LOF&BE) was held from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm on Sunday June 30, 2019. The workshop was held as a part of the 2019 Interflam Conference in Egham, United Kingdom. The working group is co-led by Sara McAllister of the U.S. Forest Service, Sayaka Suzuki of the National Research Institute of Fire and Disaster, and Samuel L. Manzello of NIST's Engineering Laboratory. The IAFSS permanent working group consists of three subgroups, with subleaders appointed by Manzello, McAllister, and Suzuki, and these are prioritized into the following topics: Ignition Resistant Communities (IRC - led by Elsa Pastor, UPC), Emergency Management and Evacuation (EME, led by Enrico Ronchi, Lund University), and Large Outdoor Firefighting (LOFF, led by Raphaele Blanchi, CSIRO, unable to travel to UK). The IRC subgroup is focused on developing the scientific basis for new standard testing methodologies indicative of large outdoor fire exposures, including the development of necessary testing methodologies to characterize wildland fuel treatments adjacent to communities. The EME subgroup is focused on developing the scientific basis for effective emergency management strategies for communities exposed to large outdoor fires. The LOFF subgroup is providing a review of various tactics that are used, as well as the various personal protective equipment (PPE), and suggests pathways for research community engagement, including environmental issues in suppressing these fires. At the workshop, detailed progress was presented regarding activities of all the subgroups. An extended session was held for open discussion so that participants could provide feedback on current progress and offer suggestions for the upcoming LOF&BE workshop being organized as part of IAFSS 2020.
