Abstract (EN)

Resilience to potential disasters is of paramount importance in rapidly expanding urban environments. During such events, the primary objective is timely evacuation of occupants to ensure safety. Response authorities often lack a comprehensive understanding of occupant behavior in high-rise buildings, which is crucial for operational and mitigation control. Moreover, the lack of integrated software for planning and managing disaster events has exacerbated this issue. This study addresses that gap by developing an integrated framework that strengthens the fire disaster preparedness of high-rise residential buildings. An agent-based evacuation simulation and regression analysis are employed to model the time history of occupant egress during emergency scenarios, capturing floor-by-floor clearance dynamics of a high-rise residential building in the city. In parallel, a GIS-based network analysis estimates response-arrival intervals for fire brigade vehicles travelling through the urban street network to each building site. Building on these insights, a spatial processing application that links simulated evacuation timelines with the geographic distribution of emergency response assets is implemented. Evacuation model outputs reveal that the rate at which successive floors are evacuated increases linearly with total building height after a threshold floor occupancy is reached, underscoring the operational importance of early intervention in taller structures. The resulting framework quantifies the spatial relationship between population clusters and responder locations, enabling data-driven allocation of fire preparedness and response resources.
