o:4692 A New Method for the Determination of Fire Risk Zones in High-Bay Warehouses en Considering that the determination of fire hazard zones in warehouses is not sufficiently researched and studied, this paper aims to present a new methodological approach concerning the mentioned issue. Based on the COPRAS multi-criteria decision-making method, a new method was developed for the precise determination of potential zones where there is a risk of fire. The advantage of the described method is that it allows the quick and easy determination of all-orientation fire risk zones. The method requires fewer hardware resources compared to the existing ones and enables the display of the warehouse space in the form of a 3D model with calculated fire hazard zones. The mentioned procedure represents the first step when planning the layout and arrangement in the warehouse itself. The effectiveness of the proposed method was confirmed through a suitable numerical example. warehouse; fire risk zones, multi-criteria decision-making 1552099 10.3390/fire7040149 1552101 2571-6255 2024-06-05T08:06:01.052Z 44 no 46 Goran Bošković Faculty of Mechanical and Civil Engineering in Kraljevo, University of Kragujevac Marko Todorović Faculty of Mechanical and Civil Engineering in Kraljevo, University of Kragujevac person Dejan Ubavin Faculty of Technical Sciences, University of Novi Sad person Borivoj Stepanov Faculty of Technical Sciences, University of Novi Sad person Višnja Mihajlović Technical Faculty Mihajlo Pupin, University of Novi Sad person Marija Perović Jaroslav Černi Water Institute person 0000-0003-2045-001X Zoran Čepić Faculty of Technical Sciences, University of Novi Sad person application/pdf 3645125 https://unilib.phaidrabg.rs/o:4692 no yes 16 70 92000001 71A04 Fire 7 149 1 19 MDPI, Basel, Switzerland 2024 Received: 2 February 2024 Revised: 3 April 2024 Published: 21 April 2024
