Abstract
Fire, as a process of uncontrolled burning, is always accompanied by a threat to human life and property. Often, this threat results in human victims. The spread of fire can vary depending on the factors and conditions in place. The location of a fire is a very important factor, and one of the most common locations of fire spreading a closed space. Most fires occur in closed spaces, particularly residential, industrial or commercial buildings. Fire can spread across virtually the entire closed space in these structures, from basements to attics. Residential buildings are among the most interesting structures in this sense, given the large number of people inside. Fire extinguishing tactics in residential buildings can vary depending on different factors, such as the function of the building in question, its interior arrangement, arrangement of communication routes, construction materials, etc. Therefore, it is very important to apply the proper tactic for fire extinguishing in closed spaces using proper fire extinguishers. This paper presents examples of extinguishing fires in closed space with proper tactics the potential use of simulation software as an important tool.
