Survivable Space



Survivable space is an area either natural or
manmade where material capable of causing a fire
to spread has been treated, cleared, reduced, or
changed.



Survivable space acts as a barrier between an
advancing wildland fire and the loss of life,
property, or resources.




Any house or structure is more likely to
withstand a wildfire if the fire intensity is
reduced.




Structures include homes, detached garages,
storage buildings, and other out- buildings.
