Change Log
BehavePlus replaced the BEHAVE fire behavior prediction and fuel modeling system, which was first available for field use in 1984. The most important changes that have been made in transitioning from the old BEHAVE through each version of BehavePlus are summarized in a PDF document. Because of the limited capabilities of the fire characteristics chart output option in the SURFACE module of BehavePlus, a Fire Characteristics Chart program has been developed as a supplement to the BehavePlus system.
