NICMAR Journal of construction managementSummary: With the advancements in building technology, the complexity of fire hazards, and vulnerability factors have increased manifolds, resulting in substantial loss of lives and property. in a typical practice of fire safety, the focus tends to be on compliance with the minimum statutory requirements such as the provision of fire protection measures, provision of egress, compartmentation, and smoke control. despite statutory compliances and proactive initiatives, there is an issue of reliability that would vary depending upon the extent of responsibility owned by the beyond codes and best practices.this paper aims to identify and assess the risks that pertain to the reliability of life and fire safety measures undertaken in a given context so that the performance reliability can be established for monitoring and improvement during various stages of the building life cycle.
