Abstract

A space composed of member or facilities lawful under the Evacuation & Fire Prevention Regulations, is established under the premise in which the safety performance has been secured from fire or disaster within the scope of legislation. However, the evaluation standard of general safety performance is insufficient, so it would be necessary to review if the fire safety performance has been fully secured in the space composed of member or facilities suitable for the standard. This study evaluated the general fire safety performance according to the area and installed position of smoke ventilator, height of ceiling, and performance of interior finishing material, targeting the office space required for the smoke exhaust system, through the Evacuation safety verification method from room of Japan. Based on the results of evaluation, it would be needed to establish more realistic architectural design measures for safe evacuation by partially modifying and complementing the current regulations related to the area and installation of smoke ventilator.
