Study of Life Safety on the Fire Accidents in the Subway Station

Abstract:

Subway station fire can easily cause many calamities that lead to a large amount of social and public problems, because the smoke spread moves in the same direction as the personnel evacuation. Therefore, life safety issues caused by the subway station fire and relevant investigation should be comprehensively taken into account in the fire safety design in order to minimize the fire accident loss. Here previously reported fire accidents in the subway station are reviewed in detail and some research on the life safety of the subway station fire are presented, which could be helpful for the accident prevention and provide guidance to future study on the safety design in the subway station fire.
