Abstract The purpose of this study is to derive the architectural guidelines for the optimal layout of tenants according to their use types during the architectural planning phase of multi-use commercial building with a focus on optimizing evacuation efficiency. For the efficient simulations, various layout alternatives for different use types of the tenants were analyzed through simulation based on the modularized plan of the IFC Mall and the layout guidelines of tenants were derived as follows. First, prioritize the placement of tenants that occupy a significant area in the overall space. Second, it is permissible not to prioritize placing large tenants favorably for evacuation. Third, proximity to the vertical core of tenants is more crucial than the floor level of tenants, and it is advisable to be more responsive to the core location rather than changing floors. The derived guidelines were applied to the existing IFC mall floor plan, and the analysis was conducted to validate the effectiveness of the guidelines. This study holds significance not only for the architectural planning phase of multi-use commercial building but also for remodeling existing buildings. It emphasizes providing differentiated difficulty levels for evacuation based on each use types of tenants, enabling a more proactive response from an evacuation perspective.
