Abstract
The present paper describes a methodology for generic fire risk assessment in buildings for decision making purposes and optimization. Generic risk assessment facilitates quantification of the expected values of consequences due to fire events in dependence of risk indicators and fire safety measures. Both may be associated with uncertainties due to lack of knowledge and randomness. A probabilistic model allows to consider these uncertainties consistently. Bayesian Probabilistic Networks are a strong tool to build such models. Moreover, it is possible to model complex time related events, affecting the fire development
