It investigates occupant relocation and evacuation strategies involving the exit stairs, elevators, sky bridges and combinations thereof. Chapters review existing information on this topic and describe case study simulations of a multi-component exit strategy. This review provides the architectural design, regulatory and research communities with a thorough understanding of the current and emerging evacuation procedures and possible future options. A model case study simulates seven possible strategies for the total evacuation of two identical twin towers linked with two sky-bridges at different heights. The authors present the layout of the building and the available egress components including both vertical and horizontal egress components, namely stairs, occupant evacuation elevators (OEEs), service elevators, transfer floors and sky-bridges. The evacuation strategies employ a continuous spatial representation evacuation model (Pathfinder) and are cross-validated by a fine network model (STEPS). Assessment of Total Evacuation Systems for Tall Buildings is intended for practitioners as a tool for analyzing evacuation methods and efficient exit strategies. Researchers working in architecture and fire safety will also find the book valuable. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Fire,$x2193-6595 606 $aCivil engineering 606 $aArchitecture 606 $aComputer simulation 606 $aCivil Engineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T23004 606 $aArchitecture, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/K0000X 606 $aSimulation and Modeling$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I19000 615 0$aCivil engineering. 615 0$aArchitecture. 615 0$aComputer simulation. 615 14$aCivil Engineering. 615 24$aArchitecture, general. 615 24$aSimulation and Modeling. 676 $a628.9 700 $aRonchi$b Enrico$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0979441 702 $aNilsson$b Daniel$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 712 02$aFire Protection Research Foundation. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299059203321 996 $aAssessment of Total Evacuation Systems for Tall Buildings$92232988 997 $aUNINA
