The smoke reading method informs the current combustion direction and combustion situation in firefighting tactics, and is used as an indicator to predict abnormal fire phenomena. This study applied this as an ignition point identification technique to fire investigation. As a result of applying it at an actual fire site to use the initial smoke as an ignition point reading technique, it was possible to read the ignition point using the smoke reading method in buildings such as sandwich panel buildings and greenhouses. However, it was not applied to steel frame and reinforced concrete structures. Therefore, as a basic experiment, we observed the smoke color, speed, density, etc. according to combustibles, and as a result of this experiment in a compartment assuming combustible inner walls and non-combustible walls, we obtained the same conclusion as the results at the fire site. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to provide a basis for determining the point of ignition by reading smoke according to the building structure.
