A guideline to complement safety problem of escape code at the fire controlling design stage was shown by comparing & analysing developed fire controlling countries such as US, UK, Japan, and etc. and appropriateness of improving legislations for building standard of escape code was examined by comparing & analysing escaping time with escape code simulation(SIMULEX, EXDOUS) as the guideline.

In order to design the optimal escape vent for the coon strip shrimp pot, the tank experiments were conducted with the model pot of five different slit height and slit width, respectively. The optimal height and width of escape vent were determined to 20mm and 40mm by tank experiments, respectively. These were determined by the 50% selection carapace length which was denoted to 25mm in selectivity curve. The escape experiments were conducted to determine a number of escape vent with the original shrimp pot to be set the designed escape vent from 2 vents to 10 vents increasing at intervals of 2 vents in tank. The optimal number of escape vents denoted 8 vents. Therefore, to apply the escape vent in commercial shrimp pot will be efficient to reduce small size shrimps to catch.

This study wants to provide basic data on effective escape safety plans when residents of apartment complex use residential convenience facilities. The findings of the analysis are as follows. First, when this study applied the actual number of users (No=54) of those facilities, the existence of elevator for escape reduced the escape time by 189.0 seconds. Second, when the number of users was calculated on the standard of the number of people who can be accommodated for performance based design (No=316), the existence of the elevator for escape reduced the escape time by 173.5 seconds. Finally, when the number of users was calculated on the standard of installing fire-fighting facilities (No=122), the existence of the elevator for escape reduced the escape time by 159.2 seconds. As a result, it was found that elevator for escape reduces the escape time from fire. Accordingly, it is necessary to revise the construction law to make it obligatory for residential convenience facilities to be equipped with elevator for escape. Currently, apartment buildings lower than 30 stories have either elevator for passengers or elevator for escape. Thus, in future studies, it is necessary to compare escape times in fire depending on the kinds of elevator, and identify the usefulness of elevator for escape.

This study investigates concept of escape room game and sorting story type based on 428 games at 141 escape room actually played. The classification were processed by Act 3 of Trottier, and as a result of the investigation, result shows three story types in offline room escape games. As for the types shown as, reason, condition and purpose of escape are guided before entering the room; a+b+c, purpose of escape is guided before entering the room but conditions for escape should be determined through play; a+b(c), and finally figure out the condition, purpose of the game during the play;(a+b+c).

In apartment buildings, casualties, especially fatalities have occurred in balcony areas in fires if residents fail to escape to the main entrance. Potential consequences of a particular infrequent event should be considered. In attempting to design apartment buildings for fire safety, alternative escape methods such as vertical penetration could be considered. The purpose of this study is to investigate present building regulations regarding apartment buildings and examine pros and cons of the current escape method and alternative escape methods. Focus group interview was conducted to discuss problems of fire escape methods. In addition, questionnaires were distributed to field professionals working in architecture, construction and related industries. Among 500 questionnaires distributed, 192 questionnaires were collected. Usable 162 questionnaires were analyzed using SPSS 15. Regarding alternative fire escape methods, several concerns were mentioned. Safety, privacy, security, effectiveness of escape, water proof problems were raised. Based on the opinions, vertical penetration between apartment unit appeared more safe, secure, effective than horizontal penetration. However, both methods have its own pros and cons under specific contexts. Alternative escape methods need be considered for a selective options for residents in case of fire.

Because of not accepted on escape using elevators in fire emergency has some background. In the background elevator hoistway has turn into smoke spread route in fire. The escape that used an elevator was not able to make ends meet; of the big confusion is expected that cannot control the escape adequately, and do that elevator facilities breakdown possibility by the fire water, the escaper shut in car. Therefore ban on elevator service in fire time as a general rule. Recently, a few company promote super high-rise architecture in the country, a fire disaster prevention and human life safety measures preparation for PBD(A Performance Based Fire Protection Design) are studied concretely. And there is the escape example in fire time that used an elevator in the foreign country. You must promote it so that the escape measures that used enclosed stairway and an elevator in charge of a function of the mutual supplement. The result of this research can be used for establishing the standard and regulation for using elevators in fire emergency.

In the disaster prevention design, it is important point to secure escape way at event of fire which makes people away from the fire more quickly and safely. Development of construction techniques leads to build many skyscrapers, and skyscrapers contains various dangers and increase levels of disaster. At basic design stage for skyscrapers, evacuation scenario is considered that occupants are escape using escape stairs and emergency elevators simultaneously at fire, but there is no evacuation program to simulate using escape stairs and emergency elevators at the same time. In this study, evacuation simulation is performed using method of VR which is based on Virtools of 3DVIA Co., and Simulex of IES Co. for safety and effectiveness where occupants are escape using escape stairs and emergency elevators simultaneously at the fire.

A panic device is a type of door lock that opens when pressed or pushed by the body, so it is an emergency escape device designed to easily open the door and escape in an emergency situation such as fire or earthquake. It is an ideal door handle for an emergency exit. Because many people move quickly and it is easy to use, it is common in Europe and North America, but in Korea, the product is expensive, so it is used on a limited basis in luxury buildings such as hotels, but its use is gradually increasing. East Asian countries such as Korea, China, and Japan mainly prefer the North American type. The design of the penic device used in is a uniform and universal design, and research and development of a new design of the penic device was required to develop a new design type product considering the aesthetics of the building.
