[GSBN] Fire case studies

[David Eisenberg]

Hi Chris and all,

A long time ago I wrote a few articles for The Last Straw about specific sb
fires that had occurred. I can try to dig them up. They are probably in the
TLS compilation of issues 1-40, The First Ten Years (1993-2003). (Funny to
see the image on that TLS webpage of Volume 1, Number 1 - Winter 1993 — I
wrote the cover story, "First Phase of the Testing Program Completed." And
wow - 25 years ago!). I have that compilation but have not searched it yet,
especially since Bob Theis wrote the attached review of fire testing and
experience in 2003, presumably looking at anything documented in TLS by
2003.

I'm hoping Bob will chime in here with whatever recollections and
additional information he might have.I'm not sure if this was ever updated
or if anyone else has done case studies of fires. It might be useful to
search the GSBN archives to see what can be found there.

I did find this, from the Winter 1996 issue (#13) of TLS - some insights
from the wayback machine...
