Nowadays, everyone is striving for maximum security. We try to make the objects as safe as possible, even in the case of an accident, fire. To make evacuation as successful as possible, we need to know the legislation, basic terms, but also, how it all looks in practice. Accidents also occur in sports facilities. Visitors may also be people who are unfamiliar with the building itself, so it must be well taken care of to evacuate them in the event of a fire or other incident.
Thesis in the introductory part deals with the legislation, concepts of evacuation, evacuation paths, evacuation times, and the analysis of evacuation times with the Pathfinder program is also presented at the end.
Through my analysis I worked with the Pathfinder program, which is used to simulate the evacuation of people from the facility. I focused on increasing the number of people in the room, the psycho-physical condition of people, and the number of exits from the hall. Through the analysis, I tried to confirm or reject the hypotheses that were formed before the beginning.
The main purpose of my thesis was to bring the important concepts of evacuation as close as possible to all readers, and to practically check how changing a particular component affects evacuation.
I found that the sports Hall where I took measurements needed at least one additional emergency exit, as this would improve the overall evacuation time.
