Methods Of Design For Means Of Egress: Towards A Quantitative Comparison Of National Code Requirements

Kendik, E., 1986. Methods Of Design For Means Of Egress: Towards A Quantitative Comparison Of National Code Requirements. Fire Safety Science 1: 497-511. doi:10.3801/IAFSS.FSS.1-497


ABSTRACT

This paper provides a brief review of the modeling of people movement during the egress from buildings and discusses some of the questions raised by each type of modeling. Furthermore, it compares the predictions of a selected calculation method with regulatory requirements on means of escape in various countries.
