Description / Abstract:
This International Standard establishes a framework for the
verification and validation of all types of calculation methods
used as tools for fire safety engineering by specifying specific
procedures and requirements for the purpose. It does not address
specific fire models, but it is applicable to analytical models,
algebraic correlations and complex numerical models, which are
addressed as calculation methods in the context of this
International Standard.
This International Standard includes
— a process to determine that the relevant equations and
calculation methods are implemented correctly (verification) and
that the calculation method being considered is an accurate
representation of the real world (validation),
— requirements for documentation to demonstrate the adequacy of
the scientific and technical basis of a calculation method,
— requirements for data against which a calculation method's
predicted results are checked, and
— guidance on use of this International Standard by developers
and/or users of calculation methods, and by those assessing the
results obtained by using calculation methods.
