Abstract:
The 11th Joint Meeting of the United States-Japan Panel
on Fire Research and Safety was held on the campus of
the University of California, Berkeley, October 19-24,
1989. Some disruption of the meeting resulted from the
October 17 earthquake. The epicenter was about 60 miles
southeast of San Francisco, in the Loma Prieta mountains
near Santa Cruz. Thus, some of the papers were not
presented, but are included in this volume. This volume
comprises a total of 6 progress reports and 30
supporting papers in 3 areas: Risk, Hazard and
Evacuation; Fire and Toxicity Chemistry; and Fire and
Smoke Physics. The next Panel Meeting will be held in
Japan in the autumn of 1992.
