| Resumen |
The total cost of fires (damage, prevention and protection) in the United States is estimated at USD 115 billion per year, plus another USD 13 billion for the economic cost of fire deaths and injuries. This paper is an extract from a report by the National Institute of Standards and Technology describing the major components of the total cost of fire and providing new estimates for each. Computations discussed in the report include: property losses, business interruption and product liability; insurance; the fire service; preventive measures. |
