UL Research Institutes’ Fire Safety Research Institute has released three new research publications exploring how building design can simultaneously advance sustainability and fire resilience.

The publications are part of the Decision Support Frameworks for a Sustainable and Fire Resilient Built Environment project (SAFR-BE). Together, these studies provide insights that support the SAFR-BE framework and advance the development of a more sustainable and fire-resilient built environment.
