Investigation of occupants' evacuation and smoke affections rates with simulations in elderly home during a fire

In this study will be examining safe evacuation of elder and hendicapped people , from a building that they are in, in case of fire through different scenarios as well as examining the eventual and vital effects over people obviously caused by the released gases during the incident such as temperature and visibility. By researching national and international standards, architectural modeling will be made in accordance with national standards in elderly care homes, by adding people into this model and fire simulation and evacuation simulation program will be used on different scenarios, and how users are affected by fire and fire-related factors during evacuation will be examined. In the architectural model, evacuation scenarios will be created in the floor corridors whether the smoke exhausted control system and there is an automatic sprinkler system or not, and these results will be compared with each other. Persons to be evacuated will be diversified by stretcher, wheelchair and self-evacuation.
