This project studies the current regulations for fire protection in student housing. Applicable regulations are reviewed via statistical and case study analysis. A series of recommendations are then made for the improvement of fire protection in student housing based upon the statistical and case study analysis. Ramifications of cost and installation feasibility are also considered.
