With the "Fire Protection Building Plan" of the Building Center of Japan as a sample, actual evacuation plans used for large scaled and multi-storied buildings are analyzed. Sufficient number of samples were classified into 6 categories. For room evacuation, time to pass through the exit was the most critical point for larger spaces and movement time in the room was the key for smaller evacuation object zone and less number of evacuees. Seen from the location of fire breakout point, it was witnessed that the numbers of crowding at the exits of the fire escape staircase are serious for floor level evacuation. For vertical traffic line, it was actually proved that time to fire escaping floor is problem of higher buildings. It was also proved that special evacuation methods are in practical use in many buildings in japan.

건물 높이에 비례하여 피난계단의 길이가 증가하면서 피난 인원부하도 함께 늘어나기 때문에 피난시간은 건물 높이에 제곱비례하는 것으로 볼 수 있다. 연기의 수직전파가 신속한데 비하여 피난 속도는 너무나 늦기 때문에 수직피난로의 안전을 위한 대책이 절실하다. 현존하는 수직피난경로의 급기가압식 제연시스템은 흑한기에 연돌효과에 의해 기능이 현저히 제한을 받게 된다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 계단실을 외부로 개방하거나 계단실과 외부 사이의 공기 소통을 자유롭게 함으로써 혹한기 연돌효과를 극복할 수 있다.

The purpose of this study is to know how visual-field obstruction from fire smoke influences a resident's necessary time to reach fire escape and evacuation movement in a high-rise apartment housing. Generally, fire smoke not only gives visual-field obstruction and breath troubles to residents but interrupts their evacuation behavior. If a fire smoke layer is formed in the core department when evacuee enters at the evacuation staircase until, residents will be made to undergo a range of vision obstacle. In order to set a situation like that, participants wore eye bandage which had been made especially before the experiment. Also as a comparative standard, through no.1442 Japanese construction ministry notices about the building evacuation safety verification method, this study calculated smoke layer's dissent time and evacuation time. Then to compare with the former, the participants without an eye bandage joined a experiment once again. This study has understood how fire smoke effects on one's evacuation delay by analyzing residents' evacuation time to reach the staircase and movement route, however, in this study a toxic gas is not considered because it might threaten participants not to breathe.

In the event of a fire in a high-rise building, rapid evacuation through the stairwell is a very important factor in rapid evacuation. However, in the event of an actual fire, most of the occupants evacuate at the same time, resulting in a stay in the stairwell, reducing the evacuation speed. In Korea, conditions for buildings are created to evacuate quickly and safely while introducing performance-oriented designs to solve these problems, but there is no research data related to the evacuation speed due to joining in the event of vertical evacuation. Therefore, in this study, by analyzing the experiment conducted at W University in Japan, the density-speed relationship when staying in the staircase room was derived, and the regression equation was derived based on the results.

The purpose of the present research is to provide a plan for an effective evacuation of residents and people who's in need of evacuation (such as children, the handicapped, and the old) and for the situation when staircase is not available for evacuation, by means of analyzing the evacuation behavioral characteristics of the residents or the evacuators and suggesting an evacuation plan using an emergency elevator in order to minimize casualties in case when fire broke out in a skyscraper.

Recent years have seen a notable increase in fire incidents in university cafeterias, yet the social attention to these occurrences remains limited. Despite quick responses to these incidents preventing loss of life, the need for large-scale evacuation in such high foot traffic areas can cause significant disruptions, economic losses, and panic among students. The potential for stampedes and unpredictable damage during inadequate evacuations underscores the importance of fire safety and evacuation research in these settings. Previous studies have explored evacuation models in various university environments, emphasizing the influence of environmental conditions, personal characteristics, and behavioral patterns on evacuation efficiency. However, research specifically focusing on university cafeterias is scarce. This paper addresses this gap by employing Pathfinder software to analyze fire spread and evacuation safety in a university cafeteria. Pathfinder, an advanced emergency evacuation assessment system, offers realistic 3D simulations, crucial for intuitive and scientific evacuation analysis. The studied cafeteria, encompassing three floors and various functional areas, often exceeds a capacity of 1500 people, primarily students, during peak times. The study includes constructing a model of the cafeteria in Pathfinder and analyzing evacuation scenarios under different fire outbreak conditions on each floor. The paper sets standard safe evacuation criteria (ASET > RSET) and formulates three distinct evacuation scenarios, considering different fire outbreak locations and initial evacuation times on each floor. The simulation results reveal the impact of the fire's location and the evacuation preparation time on the overall evacuation process, highlighting that fires on higher floors or longer evacuation preparation times tend to reduce overall evacuation time.In conclusion, the study emphasizes a multifaceted approach to improve evacuation safety and efficiency in educational settings. Recommendations include expanding staircase widths, optimizing evacuation routes, conducting regular drills, strengthening command during evacuations, and upgrading emergency facilities. The use of information and communication technology for managing emergencies is also suggested. These measures collectively form a comprehensive framework for ensuring safety in educational institutions during fire emergencies.

In this study, a 2D hydrodynamic model equipped with critical dry depth scheme was developed to reproduce the flow over staircase. The channel geometry of hydraulic experiment conducted by Ishigaki et al. was generated in the computational space, and the developed model was validated against flow properties such as discharge, velocity and momentum. In addition, the water surface profile and the velocity distribution evolved in flow over two layers staircases were analyzed. When the initial water depth at the upper floor was 0.3 m, the maximum velocity at lower floor was 4.2 m/s, and the maximum momentum was $1.2m^3/s^2$, and its conversion to force per unit width was 1.2 kN/m. This value was equivalent to the hydrostatic force with 50 cm water depth, and evacuation became difficult, as proposed by Ishigaki et al. For the flow over staircases connecting two layers, the maximum run-up height in flat part connecting two layers was approximately two times higher than the initial water depth in upper floor, and the rapid shock wave with sharp front and long tail was propagated.

연구목적: 본 연구는 방화관리자 및 건물 관계인이 피난안전성능 향상 계획 수립 시, 한정된 예산을 고려하여 피난안전성능 개선 항목 선정에 도움을 주는 수치해석 DB 구축 방향 수립이 목적이다. 연구방법: 직통계단형 아파트 1개동과 복도형 1개동을 선정하여 정량적 평가기법인 CFD기반 피난안전성평가를 수행하였다. 연구결과: 직통계단형 아파트는 방화구획 항목에서의 피난허용시간이 스프링클러설비 등 피난허용시간보다 약 130%이상 높게 나타났다. 결론: 방화관리자 및 건축물 관계인은 적법하게 유지관리하고 직통계단형 공동주택에서는 "주거세대 별도 방화구획"을 우선 적용하는 것이 피난안전성이 가장 개선되고, 층간 방화구획과 스프링클러설비를 상시 유지보수 및 강화하는 것이 효과적일 것으로 판단된다. 복도형 공동주택에서는 연기확산이 직통계단형 공동주택보다 제한적인 특성을 고려하여 소화설비의 유지보수가 우선되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

고층 공동주택에서 화재시 현관문을 통해 탈출이 불가능할 경우를 대비해 발코니를 통해 피난이 가능하도록 피난시설을 설치한다. 이는 공동주택 세대의 양방향 피난이 가능하게 하며, 이로 인해 인명피해를 줄일 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 양방향 피난시설인 경량 칸막이, 발코니 대피 공간, 실내형 하향식 피난구의 특징을 살펴보고 이들의 문제점을 개선한 실외형 하향식 피난구를 제시하고 경제성에 대해 분석하였다. 화재 발생 시 피난자는 전통식 피난구를 사용할 때보다 하향식 피난구를 사용할 때 능동적인 탈출 가능 여부를 더 자율적으로 판단 할 수 있다. 따라서 피난자의 피난방식에 따라 피난소요시간에 미치는 영향을 고려하여 계단식과 하향식 피난구를 통한 4가지 피난방식의 피난 소요시간은 시뮬레이션 pathfinder를 활용하여 비교분석하였다. 피난 소요 시간 단축을 위한 적합한 대피방식을 예측 분석 판단하였다. 본 연구의 결과 고층 아파트 하향식 피난구는 계단식보다 총 피난소요시간을 단축할 수 있는 것으로 분석되었다.

이 연구는 2003년 12월 30일 사업승인을 받은 11층 이하의 건축관계법령이 소급 적용되지 않는 노후된 아파트가 연구 대상이며, 화재 시 인명피해가 증가되고 있는 11층 이하의 아파트에 대해 Fire Dynamics Simulator(FDS) 프로그램을 통해 위험성을 분석한 연구이다. 직통계단 입구에 방화문이 미설치된 기존 상황을 기본시나리오1로 방화문이 설치된 것으로 가정한 개선시나리오2~4의 방화문 설치 여부에 따른 위험성 분석 결과, 기본시나리오1은 연기확산으로 인한 직통계단 입구까지의 가시거리는 260초로 나타났다. 방화문이 설치된 개선시나리오3~4는 화재를 인지한 뒤 300초 후에 개방되고 직통계단 입구에 30분 방화문이 설치된 경우 직통계단 입구까지의 가시거리는 600초 한계미도달로 나타났다. 이 경우 가시거리는 방화문 설치 시 600초로 시나리오1에 비해 시나리오 3~4는 56.6% 증가되어 피난 위험성이 50%이상 낮아지는 것으로 나타났다. 연기확산의 위험성을 증가시키는 직통계단 미설치의 위험성을 제거하기 위해 법 개정을 통해 소방법령과 같이 건축관련법령이 소급 적용되어 직통계단 입구에 방화문을 설치하거나 발코니의 접이식 피난시스템 등 동등이상의 성능을 가진 시설물을 설치해야 한다. 방화문 설치에 따른 개선으로 피난시 방화문의 필요성을 수치적으로 증명하였고 방화문은 폐쇄 상태로의 유지에 대한 중요성을 파악할 수 있다.
