Fire protection engineer Steve Kerber reviews results of a full-scale fire experiment conducted in an unoccupied seven-story apartment building on New York’s Governors Island. The full-scale experiment in a real high-rise tested findings from the controlled laboratory fire experiments (described in video 3). Techniques and approaches tested were stairwell pressurization with portable fans, wind-control devices, and alternative strategies of attack. Collaborators in the live burn included the City of New York Fire Department, the Chicago Fire Department, the National Institute of Standards of Technology, and Underwriters Laboratory.
