A survey of 8985 records on all fires in Latvia in 2019 gathered by State Fire and Rescue Service was performed to find out if gathered data is suitable and complete for establishment of statistical database for fire protection engineering. The purpose of the survey is to assess suitability of provided content for further studies of the characteristic building fire occurrence probabilities in different building occupancy classes and to obtain solid background for calculations of national values of fire activation partial safety factors which could be implemented in National Annex of Eurocode 1 part 1–2. Study contains data about the total number of building fires with relevance to their occupancy types and review of recorded fire causes for residential buildings that provide overall insight on typical causes of fires in dwellings.

Wood construction elements are widely used in buildings and they can be used in construction elements such as roofs, floorings, windows and doors. As wood is combustible material, there are lot of fire regulations that should be fulfilled at the design stage of any building project. In Latvia, as in some other countries usage of wood in building constructions is limited. Wood materials are an ecologically friendly material and a renewable resource, and its usage should be promoted. The paper presents an overview of heat distribution in wood floorings exposed to standard heat fluxes which is different compared to wood members exposed to high heat radiation. Fire spread and self-ignition investigation on wood floorings is carried out in this research. The results show different kinds of the temperature distribution in the cross section of the wood member cross section depending on heat radiation and location of the temperature measurement point. Temperature distributions in wood during fire can be completely different in dependence on heat radiation and cross section of the wood member. The wood materials in floorings do not reach the self-ignition temperature during standard heat radiation.
