ISO History

ISO (International Organization for Standardization) is the worlds largest developer of voluntary International Standards. ISO History

founded in 1947, with 67 official TCs and since then have published more than 19500 International Standards covering almost all aspects of technology and business.

ISO HistoryToday ISO have members from 164 countries and about 150 people work full time for ISO Central Secretariat in Geneva, Switzerland.

Fire Safety Standardization

Technical Committee (TC)

The technical work is carried out through technical committees (TC's) which are established by the Technical Management Board (TMB). TC's establish their own subcommittees (SC's) and working groups (WG's) to undertake the work. Each and SC has a secretariat assigned to a member body for eg. BSI, DIN, AFNOR, ANSI, JISC, UKAS, NQA etcTechnical Committee (TC)TC 92 Fire SafetyTC 92 / SC1 - Fire Initiation and Growth.TC 92 / SC2 - Fire ContainmentTC 92 / SC3 - Fire Threat to People and EnvironmentTC 92 / SC4 - Fire Safety Engineering
