  • 초고층 건축물의 급속한 증가는 건축물 화재 시 고층에서 보다 빨리 피난할 수 있는 구조적 피난설비를 요구한다. 기존의 구조용 완강기나 구조대는 고층에서는 피난자의 공포감을 충분히 해소하기에 역 부족이었다. 이러한 문제점을 보완한 성능을 갖추어 동시에 다수의 피난자를 대피시킬 수 있는 새로운 피난기구가 요구되고 있다. 이에 고층에서도 동시에 여러 사람이 안전하고, 신속하게 피난층까지 무사히 대피가 가능한 유압식 피난기구를 고안하고, 개략 설계하게 되었다. 이 연구를 기초로 향후 상세설계를 마친 후 고층 건축물에 적용되어 안전한 피난기구가 되었으면 한다.

  • 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.

  • The trends in building construction these days are moving towards having better work space and greater suitability for the use of information technology, Therefore people can work in a more relaxed, delightful and pleasant environment. So accidents like fire could cause the mass destruction of human beings. In this paper, we estimated the escape time from a building and simulated the study results on computer to see how safe it would be in a real situation.

  • Recently the consideration for occupants' security has been raised as very important design element from the fire by building's large sized, higher storied, and its compounded. But the domestic Laws regulated the predicative laws according to the technical standard which has no difference from the past domestic evacuation regulations. Therefore when big fire occurs, it is not enough to guarantee for occupants to escape safely. Specially since domestic escape relevant laws are divided into Architect relevant law and fire fighting relevant law, it has caused to bring various problems. So This study will show the problems of the evacuation regulation which is registrated in the Architect relevant law and fire fighting relevant law. And also later, when Architect escape relevant laws re-registrate, this study will be used as foundational materials.

A Legal Alternative for Effective Application of Pressurized Smoke Control System to Provide ′Smoke-free′ Access for Escape Shafts Used in High-Rise Building (국내 고층건물의 피난성능확보를 위한 급기가압방연(제연) 시스템의 제도개선연구)

  • There have been the current controversy over effectiveness of the pressurized smoke control systems, which are installed within escape shaft to provide 'smoke-free' access for escaping peoples. Therefore, many effective measures were given in this paper by means of the production of a design guide for various types of escape routes used in domestic buildings. The solutions were established on basis of both an investigating current door closing device application in existing facilities and global standardization for pressurized smoke control system, especially in British Standard. Finally, the design guidance for open door air velocity with introduction to three door protection clauses was presented on the basis of consideration of the safety and economical factor,
