A plan is presented for the development of computer software to support the generic framework of a Consolidated Compartment Fire Model (CCFM) computer code. The several software modules which will make up particular application versions of the CCFM are identified. These modules are then classified as either generic or application-specific. The characteristics and a detailed plan for the development of the generic modules are outlined. Descriptions of the CCFM application products which will use the generic framwork were presented. All of these will be designed in response to clear needs of the fire science and technology community. In terms of modeling sophistication of CCFM products, the prototype application will be at the simple end of the spectrum. It will provide simple guidance for engineering fire safety design. At the other extreme will be a benchmark like compartment fire model computer code. At an intermediate level of sophistication will be an Application product which will be useful as an updated tool Fire Hazard Assessment.
