If the source of the fire is so small like you are saying, why do you need the terms “V” pattern or “area of greatest damage”? If the fire damage is that small all you need to be doing is saying this is the fuel that was ignited by this source of heat. Using those terms are only adding fluff to your report. They are really meaningless as to your conclusions.
