Meet investigation challenges head-on with the NEW 2004 NFPA 921!
Based on established scientific principals, NFPA 921: Guide for Fire and Explosion Investigations, is the benchmark for safe and systematic investigations. It's so important that most certification programs for fire investigators use material from NFPA 921.

The 2004 edition raises the bar for better quality investigations with updated facts and figures that reflect the most current scientific findings, court rulings, and technological trends. Improve the fire investigation process and produce better quality data with:

Updated material, new drawings, and additional examples in the chapter on Documenting the Investigation. Plus, all forms in NFPA 906, Guide for Fire Incident Field Notes have been revised and incorporated as an Annex to this chapter. A revised and reorganized chapter on Legal Considerations that more effectively describes the legal system as it relates to fire investigation, a new chapter on Analyzing the Incident for Cause and Responsibility.

Position yourself for success with new and expanded material on important topics, including:
Safety of the investigator during evidence storage, laboratory tests, and live fire testing as well as at the fire scene; proper use of digital imaging technology; how fire spreads to other compartments in a building as well as fire spread within a single compartment ; ignitable liquid burn patterns; arcing involving uninsulated conductors; static discharge arcs.

Whether you conduct fire investigations or render opinions on the origin, cause, responsibility, or prevention of fires and explosions, NFPA 921 is your best source for accepted guidelines on all phases of the investigative process.
