The National Fallen Firefighters Foundation (NFFF) (www.firehero.org）提醒响应者，在协助灾难情况下，必须将其完全证明为公共安全官员，以便在严重受伤或死亡的情况下有资格获得公共安全官员福利（PSOB）。要求响应者熟悉这些要求，并与各州的部门共享信息。标准遵循；他们是由内布拉斯加州的最后一位协调员凯尔·恩恩（Kyle Ienn）酋长和NFFF每个人都回家计划的国家倡导者提供的。
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) TN 1681,Best Practice Guidelines for Structural Fire Resistance of Concrete and Steel Buildings, is available from the NIST Engineering Laboratory. The document, part of the NIST response to the World Trade Center (WTC) disaster of 9/11, was developed in conjunction with the agency's technical building and fire safety investigation of WTC buildings 1 and 2 (the WTC towers) and 7.
Experts in the design and construction industry and academia also participated in developing the document, which features information on current best practices in structural fire resistance engineering in the United States and overseas, current best knowledge in fire risk assessment, material properties at high temperatures, and thermal and structural response calculation methods. Comments received from NIST-sponsored workshops organized by the American Society of Civil Engineers and from individually submitted comments on the draft version are also included. The report is available athttp://www.nist.gov/manuscript-publication-search.cfm?pub_id=907295.
