This project is the continuation of an earlier project on residential fires in the U.S. and Australia. Based on the previous research, more emphasis is placed on how to prepare and prevent residential fires. A number of fire safety organizations in the U.S. will be introduced, and the methods of how these organizations concentrate on different aspects of residential fires will be presented.
