Abstract
Automatic intelligent fire-code checking is examined. A general approach is considered, wherein engineering code requirements are encoded in a knowledge-based expert system which evaluates a design for overall conformance. The system consists of a frame system, a rule system and a set of geometric algorithms. It identifies code violations and generates a report listing them. A number of the supporting algorithms for eliciting knowledge are discussed
