우리나라는 IT 강국으로 관련 부품 등을 생산하기 위한 Clean Room 시설이 기하급수적으로 증가하고 있으나, 열·연기 확산에 대한 과학적인 분석이 멀티플렉스, 할인점, 고층 빌딩 등에만 국한되고 있어 생산시설에 대찬 적극적인 검증이 이루어지지 않고 있다. 또한 Clean Room 시설이 가장 많은 국가로 우리나라와 더불어 미국, 일본, 대만 정도에 지나지 않아 국제적으로 Clean Room에 대한 많은 방재기준 제정 및 연구가 미흡하다.(중략)

대형 산불이 발생했을 경우 인접 마을 등에 대한 피난 연구는 국내에서 아직까지 이루어지지 않고 있으며 대부분의 대피 대상자들이 재해 약자들로 구성되어있어 산불 대피에 관한 연구가 필요한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 산불 대피지도 알고리즘을 개발하여 산불의 진행경로 및 확산에 따른 적정한 대피경로를 제시함으로서 인적 피해를 저감하는데 그 목적이 있다.

선박화재는 육상과 달리 숙련된 인원과 다양한 장비에 의한 소화활동이 곤란하며 거의 자체적인 진화작업을 수행해야하므로 소화가 쉽지 않다. 화재는 일반적으로 화염에 의한 인명사고 보다 매연에 의한 질식사의 확률이 높으므로 인명사고를 방지하기 위해서는 신속한 초기 진화가 가장 중요하다. 하지만 여러 가지 이유로 부득이 소화가 지연되거나 불가능할 경우에는 화재 구역으로부터 신속한 탈출만이 인명사고를 방지할 수 있다. 이 연구에서는 CFD기법을 이용한 시뮬레이션을 통하여 선박화재시 탈출에 지장이 되는 매연농도를 측정하고 피난시간과 비교하여 적절한 피난이 가능한지에 대한 안전성을 검토하고자 한다.

`SOS', Simulator Of Safety assessment for fire, was developed to simulate fire safety assessment for a structure which is geometrically complex. The program(SOS) is intended to use for searching as well as designing tools to analyse the evacuation safety through a wide range of structure conditions. The computer program has a function which importing FDS's calculating results to each individual resident in the structure. These attributes include a walking speed reduction by producing visibility reduction for each person on the fire. $A^*$ pathfinding algorithm is adopted to calculate the simulation of escape movement, overtaking, route deviation, and adjustments individual speeds in accordance with the proximity of crowd members. This SOS program contributes to a computer package that evaluates the fire safety assessment of individual occupants as they walk towards, and through the exits especially for building, underground spaces like a subway or tunnel.

This study is intended to evaluate the characteristics of smoke spreading and the appropriateness of evacuation time extended by operation of smoke control system during fire within the underground space of the building structured in compliance with the smoke control system performance criteria from the local fire safety standard in Korea. As a preceding review of this study, the combustibles was categorized and identified their heat release rates. For validate the estimated values, modeling a single underground shop was carried out. And a numerical analysis both in case of smoke control system in operation and the system not in operation was carried out of underground space. From the viewpoint of securing the evacuation time, the results were compared in an attempt to assess the appropriateness of the fire safety criteria.

The west underground express way is a recent initiated BTO (Build-Transfer-Operate) project for releasing heavy traffic of the existing west express way which is notorious on-ground road for extremely traffic stuck area in the west of Seoul, South Korea. The new express way for light vehicles is the first double-deck tunnel ever designed in South Korea and 10.91 km long including both open cut structures and concrete lining with middle-deck in bored tunnel. Because the new express way is going through underground of heavily populated area, mechanical & electrical design for the safety of drivers in tunnel is one of the most important parts among many design issues. This paper discusses M & E design focuses including ventilation-evacuation plan and various safety facilities.

The fact that the smoke hinders evacuation and fire-fighting activities as well as becomes the major cause of life casualty emphasizes the importance of smoke control system. As one of the fire safety standards designed to secure the smoke safety, NFSC501A (Design Guide for Smoke Control System of Special Evacuation Stairwell and Lobby) has been proposed, preventing smoke from penetrating into the smoke-free escape route by raising the pressure of the smoke control zone higher than fire area. For model building of 20 stories, pressurization system was designed according to standard and pressure field of compartments in whole building induced by pressurization system was analyzed using the network model.

A occupant load density of contemporary office buildings were surveyed by a building w walk through procedure in Korea. The survey results of ten office buildings are range from 1 2 2 2 213.14 m !person 041.4 ft !person) to 22.69 m /person (244.34 ft !person) with 95% confidence l level and the mean occupant load density is 17.92 m2/person 092.87 ft2/야rson). The impacts of occupant load on evacuation flow time was analyzed by applying time-based egress m model, SIMULEX with various occupant load densities from previous studies. I In order to demonstrate the validation of egress modeling method, fire evacuation exercise a and computer simulation were used to simulate the actual evacuation plan for a high-rise office building. An analysis and comparison of the results of these approaches was made to i illustrate the influence of model limitations on the result of prediction The result of the study shows that the introduction of occupant load concept in building c code of Korea is essential to achieving resonable building life safety design in future.

Recently the life damage is increasing due to the house disruption and burying accident by the landslide, and most of the damages are concentrating on the agricultural area. This study is a basic study for developing the personal disaster evacuation apparatus that can be installed in the house for the people in agricultural area vulnerable to the disaster in case of the landslide. This study carried out the numerical analysis and the object load test on the personal disaster evacuation apparatus. As a result of this study, it was judged the life damage could be minimized if the personal disaster evacuation apparatus using the glass fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP) materials was installed in the steep slope-land with a high possibility of the disruption.

Recently, evacuation safety of building resident become the major concern, as the building has been higher and more complicated. Many high-rise multi use buildings are under construction in Korea. Required evacuation time using stairway is longer in high-rise buildings, moreover it is impossible for the disabled to evacuate by using stairway. For this reason the study on the effectiveness of using elevator for evacuation is progressing. This study shows the pressure change in various types of hoistway when elevator is moving. Experiments were performed in 4 different types of hoistway, and showed big difference in pressure change between the type of hoistway. The pressure change in single hoistway that have one car is bigger than that in multi hoistway that have multi cars. The results of this study can be used for the study of elevator piston effect as basic data.
