The conference is organized by RISE Research Institutes of Sweden and RISE Fire Research Norway, in collaboration with Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), the Technical University of Denmark, Lund University, Aalto University, Luleå University, University of Stavanger, Western Norway University of Applied Sciences, Iceland University, VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland Ltd and the Danish Institute of Fire and Security Technology. NFSD are developed as a response to the extensive interest in the areas of fire and safety engineering in the Nordic countries. The conference in 2018 was hosted by the NTNU in Trondheim, Norway. Fire safety has been a major concern for societies since civilizations emerged. Protecting people, assets and environments from fires have been approached from many perspectives and scientific disciplines. The Nordic Fire & Safety Days 2018 bridges the two stances of fire engineering and fire rescue. Regulations and practices established for fire safety engineering emphasize materials, fire dynamics, and how to prevent and protect against fire hazards in engineered systems that also include evacuation from fires. The designs of the systems are more or less independent from considerations of the actual uses of the systems when put in operation. The predominant knowledge is characterized by regulations, norms and recognized practices, simulation models and to some extent low scale experiments. This year´s Nordic Fire & Safety Days hosted 134 delegates who enjoyed two days of knowledge- sharing from 66 presentations, discussions and social arrangements. The works presented at the Nordic Fire & Safety Days 2018 demonstrated a significant scientific depth and societal relevance. Some of the work presented at the conference resulted in the 22 papers included in this publication. The topic of Nordic Fire & Safety Days is: From fire safety engineering to fire rescue - feed-back mechanisms to foster improvements. This book of papers is structured in accordance with the topic chosen for the conference, with basic knowledge (Fire dynamics) for both Fire safety engineering (Structural fire safety; Fire safety engineering; Fire and materials; Tunnel fire safety) and Fire response (Pre and post fire emergency activities).
