Overview

This generic risk assessment relates to the forseeable hazards and risks associated with collapsed structure incidents attended by Fire and Rescue Authorities. It provides a starting point for authorities to undertake their own assessments within the context of local conditions and existing organisational arrangements. Depending upon the circumstances, buildings of the same class and type of construction may collapse in different wasy. Collapsed structures may contain voids in which trapped persons can survive for comparatively long periods of time. To understand where these refuges may occur, it is necessary to be aware of the characteristics of various types of construction.
