BS ISO 16730-1:2015 establishes a framework for the verification and validation of all types
of calculation methods used as tools for fire safety engineering by specifying specific procedures and
requirements for the purpose. It does not address specific fire models, but it is applicable to analytical
models, algebraic correlations and complex numerical models, which are addressed as calculation
methods in the context of this International Standard.This International Standard includesa process to determine that the relevant equations and calculation methods are implemented correctly
(verification) and that the calculation method being considered is an accurate representation of the
real world (validation),requirements for documentation to demonstrate the adequacy of the scientific and technical basis
of a calculation method,requirements for data against which a calculation method's predicted results are checked, andguidance on use of this International Standard by developers and/or users of calculation methods,
and by those assessing the results obtained by using calculation methods.Cross References:ISO 23932ISO 13943ISO/IEC 25000ISO/IEC 25010:2011ISO/IEC 25040:2011ASTM E 1591-00ISO/IEC Guide 98-3ISO/IEC Guide 98-3/Suppl.1:2008ISO/IEC 25010:2011ISO/IEC 25040:2011ASTM E1355-97ASTM E603-98aASTM E1472-92BS 476ISO/TS 16733:2006ISO 16734ISO 16735ISO 16736ISO 16737ISO 9000:2005ISO 19011:2011ISO/IEC 17021-1:2015All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
