Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to present an alternative plan in order to reduce the required time to flee from the inside of the studyroom in danger. The data were derived from changing the width of corridors and emergency exits and the number of stairs in the buildingEXODUS, which is computer simulation program, The analyzed conclusions from the data are as follows. (1) Increasing the exits and the number of stairs are efficient to reduce the accumulated time for standing by. (2) Increasing the number of stairs is efficient to decrease the distance to get out of the building to exit. (3) Increasing the number of stairs is efficient to reduce the time to get out of the building to exit. |
