abstract="The development and use of performance-based fire safety regulations represents a dramatic shift from rule-based performance to knowledge-based performance. Much of the resistance to this approach flows from the inherent shortcomings of the decision-making processes used in building design, construction, and use and flaws in the process used to develop fire safety codes and standards. Overcoming these difficulties requires regulatory reforms that reflect the social and economic values of the communities adopting them and a process-oriented structure that recognizes and responds to the causes and costs of human error.<p />",
