Abstract

Summary Fire safety is one of the six primary requirements in civil engineering projects. All of them are controlled by governmental authorities both in phase of design and execution. From the point of fire safety one of the most complicated requirement is to achieve safety evacuation of pedestrians. Due to different point of views between governmental institutions, fire safety engineers, and developers lots of projects get more expensive and complicated. The presented paper is based on an example of a building occupancy (hotel building) and their influence on the type of escape route based on Slovak condition. As a result of design and calculation two escape routes and their mutual comparison from different point of views is presented. This work was supported by the grant project VEGA 1/0739/08 “Theoretical and experimental analysis of thermo-technical, acoustic and fire safety properties of glass systems for a well-founded construction project of multifunction glass system” funded by the Scientific Grant Agency of the Ministry of Education of Slovak Republic and the Slovak Academy of Sciences.
