Safety assessment of fire protection (SAFP) is a very important approach in fire safety management. Effectiveness and reliability are crucial to the SAFP, which has endowed the study of the assessment methods significant meaning. A new quantitative method named theoretical safety control method, based on modern control theory, was studied in the paper. Dynamic models, assessment indexes and analysis approaches of every index of the SAFP were put forward and three dynamic indexes, that are System Hazard Index-H, Control Capacity Index-C and Safety Degree-S which changed with the system states and presented the conflicting consequence between hazards and controlling of fire protection system, were used to evaluate the results of the method. This method can realize dynamic and quantitative management and the fire protection system controlling. A case study was defined and assessed by using the method in this paper, and the results of evaluation were viable compared with the actual situation.
