    Abstract

    Recently, various disasters caused by factors such as climate change and terror events have been increasing all over the world. In addition, the damage has been increasing due to the complex disasters such as fire and explosion, and unexpected accidental disasters such as human error or deliberate arson are frequent. Especially, if a complex disaster or an accidental disaster occurs in a large building such as a skyscraper, the damage will be enormous. In case of disaster response of a super high-rise buildings, therefore, it is necessary to assume various situations. For this purpose, evacuation simulations should be performed on the assumption of various disaster situations, and an optimal evacuation method should be devised accordingly. In this paper, the simulation is performed assuming that one of the emergency stairs can’t be used when a fire occurs in a super high-rise building, and then we find the optimal evacuation method based on the simulation results.
