dc.description.abstractThe determination of the risk classification categories, applicable to the uses type-XI «libraries and archives» and XII «industrial, manufactories and warehouses» involves the modified fire load calculation, which can be implemented through two methods to be used indistinctly by the technician: deterministic and probabilistic. This study conducted in the fire safety area, aims to investigate the calculation results of the modified fire load by the two methods and the classification of the UT. The calculations were made based on a real UT with defined activities and materials. Obtaining different values in UT XII, determine contradictory categories of risk, which will detract from the technical conditions required by the regulation to UT. The results led us to conclude that the legislator who hasn’t define which method to use and thereby leaves to the discretion of each technician the selection and consequently the risk category determination of the UT, cannot achieve the goal it has set in RJ-SCIE: the standardization of the demanded level in implementation of measures SCIE.pt_PT
