Ecology and Environmental Protection
Building fires threaten not only human lives, property and animals, but also the environment. Their safety can be ensured by installing smoke and heat exhaust ventilation system and sprinkler stable fire extinguishing system. However, these devices can negatively affect each other. The procedure for avoiding this negative interaction is different in countries around the world. The aim of this research was to compare the approaches of selected foreign countries to solving the problem of the negative interaction of smoke ventilation and sprinkler system. Firstly, informations from relevant legal regulations, technical standards and professional articles were collected by a research. Then the analysis and comparison of the obtained data were carried out. Based on the synthesis of the findings, the hypothesis that the countries' approach to solving the given problem is not globally uniform was confirmed. Countries' approaches are similar but not identical. The results of the research pointed to the need for changes in national and international standards that would clarify the procedure for designing the cooperation of smoke and heat exhaust ventilation system and sprinkler stable fire extinguishing system.
