| Abstract;This manuscript presents the results of sample simulation for predicting an urban fire spread in Higashiyama ward of Kyoto, which is one of the areas in Kyoto where a number of cultural heritage buildings exist. The simulations were conducted using the new urban fire spread model, which has been developed based on building fire physics unlike the conventional models originated from 'Hamada formula', which are statistics based models. The digital data from a GIS was incorporated in the simulation system so as to process a large number of input data on buildings in the area, which are necessary for running the simulations and the calculated results are shown in a graphic form.
