요약
본 연구는 건물화재의 정전시 완전 암흑상태에서 축광유도표지가 피난에 미치는 영향을 측정하기 위하여 조사하였다 실험조사는 대구 Fire EXPO '05에 실험 장치를 전시하여 엑스포 관람자 520명을 대상으로 2005년 5월 26일부터 29일까지 실시되었다. 실험 조사결과 안전 암흑상태일 때 피난자세는 남자의 경우 $70\%$, 여자는 $72\%$가 벽을 더듬으며 피난한 반면에 축광유도표지가 설치된 경우에는 남자의 경우 $88\%$, 여자의 경우 $83\%$가 선채로 피난을 한 것으로 나타났다. 나이별, 신장별, 시력별로 53초에서 64초까지 피난시간이 단축된 것으로 나타났다. 공공건물의 바닥에 축광유도표지를 설치하면 화재시 정전이 되더라도 평소와 다름없이 피난을 할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.
Abstract
This study is intended to examine the effect of photoluminescent exit signs in the event of failure of both the power to the lighting and illuminated exit sign. To achieve the purpose, the test house was exhibited in Fire EXPO '05. 520 visitors were examined from May 26-29, 2005. The results of this study are as follows; The evacuation from buildings in dark conditions showed that $70\%$ of men and $72\%$ of women were crawled along the wall. Meanwhile, $88\%$ of men and $83\%$ of women were evacuated with ordinary walking in photoluminescent exit signs. The egress time was shortened from 53 seconds to 64 seconds in accordance with age, height and visual power. The photoluminescent exit signs located on public buildings floors will aid in evacuation from buildings in the event of failure of the power to the lightings and illuminated exit signs.
