                     by including the details in the FLAMESOL computer model. FLAMESOL uses industry standard bushfire
                     equations and allows numerous input variables to be adjusted including fuel loads, fire danger index, site
                     slope and distance to vegetation. Table 4 details the potential bushfire intensity classes and their
                     corresponding potential fire-line intensity (KW/m) values as prescribed within Leonard et. al. 2017.
