Abstract
This study analyzes the institutional status related to 'evacuation' and 'firefighting' in underground subway stations, derives institutional limitations for 'evacuation' in underground subway stations, and proposes guidelines in terms of architectural space based on this. As a result of the study, the following points were derived. First, since similar standards are separately enacted in individual laws and it is difficult to grasp the standards and they are dualized, it is necessary to standardize and regulate the space where users stay according to the movement of urban railway users, limited to urban railways. Second, in order to use trains, a special procedure called 'ticketing' must be considered, and regulations on evacuation safety zones and evacuation stairs between the waiting room and the platform are required. Finally, if there is a platform at a depth of more than 30m underground, it is necessary to install an evacuation floor in accordance with standards similar to the current building law.
