For the Fire Investigation course
With today’s fire investigators being held to higher standards than ever before, it’s crucial that they gain a thorough understanding of fire protection and investigation engineering concepts, technology, and field analysis. The 8th Edition of Kirk’s Fire Investigation blends the 7th Edition of Kirk’s with the 3rd Edition of Forensic Fire Scene Reconstruction to help investigators bring their knowledge and skills to the next level. Written to the model FESHE curriculum, it takes readers through the entire fire investigation process, from evaluating a fire scene to writing reports and providing testimony–all while incorporating updated NFPA 921 and 1033 guidelines and peer-reviewed, widely cited expert treatise.
The new edition covers engineering calculations and fire modelling, and features even more in-depth case studies that provide real-world examples. Specialized topic areas include use of scanning and panoramic photography, preparation of comprehensive reports, the ignition matrix, expert testimony, and computer modelling and laser imaging. Retaining its hallmark systematic approach to fire scene investigation and reconstruction, the 8th Edition is written to help all investigators find the right answers for the right reasons.
