Abstract

There are many reasons why a high-rise building may need to be evacuated, such as a fire, bombing, explosion, terror, chemical or biological attack, storm damage, earthquake etc. Not all of these are relevant to every building and other hazardous situations, whilst possible, are so unlikely to occur that they can be disregarded. Designers of buildings must determine if a particular hazard is sufficiently great as to require addressing. In this study, the concept of an emergency evacuation elevator (EEE) was developed. This EEE includes the elevator equipment, a three hour fireproof door, which is important to protect users from smoke, a frame, a cage, a hoistway, electric wiring water, and emergency electrical power. While the primary objective of this EEE is the safe evacuation of building occupants, this elevator could also be applicable to fire service mobilization before firefighting.
