  1. 1. THE USE OF ELEVATORS FOR EVACUATION IN RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Jiajia Li; [2022]
    Keywords : Elevators; residential buildings; Evacuation; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This study focuses on the human factors associated with elevator use during evacuation in residential buildings. An online survey is conducted to explore seven factors that may influence people’s choice of elevators in China and the United Kingdom, including floor height, waiting time for elevators, crowd density in front of elevators, mobility limitations, instructions, fire location concerning people’s current location, and information about reliability of elevators during evacuation.
