Abstract

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the awareness and usability of descending life lines and simple descending life lines for fire situations in the accommodation of the public officials who are responsible for supervising the installation and maintenance of descending life lines and simple descending life lines. The main results of the study are summarized as follows. First, in comparison of the ability to distinguish between descending life lines and simple descending life lines, the majority of female public officers in general administrative services do not have the ability to distinguish between descending lifelines and simple descending life lines, so they should be able to improve their ability to distinguish descending life lines. Also, institutional strategies are needed to regularly receive education through the Safety Experience Center in order to prevent safety accidents such as falling in emergency situations. Second, as a result of verifying reusability of simple descending life lines by gender and occupation, most public officers with the exception of half of the firefighting officers were analyzed as having no ability to reuse the simple descending life lines. Therefore, it is necessary to change the relevant laws so that only the installation of descending life lines which can be used continuously is permitted, except for the simple descending life lines among the evacuation instruments to be additionally installed in each room of the accommodation. Third, in terms of the ability to perceive the maximum load of the descending life lines according to occupation, the perception ability of the rescuers was the highest and the perception ability of the fire service personnel was the lowest. In order to improve the perception abilities of the fire service personnel, it is necessary to strengthen the theoretical and practical education of descending life lines in collective education such as the command-enhancing training which is regularly carried out in fire service academy. Lastly, it is believed that it is more effective to conduct the experience training of the descending life lines by imagining the fire in accomodations rather than other facilities, because it is the location where fires are actually seen the most.

이 연구는 완강기 및 간이완강기의 설치 및 유지관리에 대해 지도 감독해야 할 책임이 있는 공무원을 대상으로 숙박시설의 화재발생시 완강기, 간이완강기의 인지 및 사용능력을 평가하기 위한 것으로 주요 연구결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 완강기와 간이완강기를 구분할 수 있는 능력 비교에서 일반 행정직공무원 중 여성공무원의 대다수가 간이완강기 구분능력이 없기 때문에 이들의 완강기 구분 능력을 향상시켜서 유사시 추락 등 안전사고를 예방하기 위하여 안전체험관 등을 통해 정기적으로 교육을 받을 수 있도록 제도적 장치가 필요하다. 둘째, 성별과 직업별 간이완강기의 재사용여부를 직업별로 확인한 결과 소방공무원 절반정도를 제외한 대다수의 공무원이 간이완강기의 재사용 능력이 없는 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 숙박시설의 각 실별로 추가로 설치해야 하는 피난 기구 중 간이완강기는 제외하고, 연속적으로 사용가능한 완강기만을 설치할 수 있도록 관련 법률을 재정비할 필요가 있다. 셋째, 완강기 최대부하 인지 능력은 소방공무원 직무별로 구조대원이 가장 높았으며, 소방행정요원이 가장 낮게 나타났다. 소방행정요원의 인지능력을 향상시키기 위해서는 소방학교에서 정기적으로 실시하는 지휘역량 교육 등 각종 집합교육에서 완강기에 대한 이론 및 실무교육을 강화할 필요가 있다. 마지막으로 실제 목격한 장소는 숙박시설이 가장 높게 나타나서 다른 시설보다 숙박시설 화재를 가상하여 완강기 체험교육을 실시하는 것이 교육효과가 높을 것으로 생각된다.
