    R. JEVTIĆ RESIDENTIAL BUILDING EVACUATION-SIMULATION OF POTENTIAL Residential Building Evacuation-Simulation of Potential Evacuation Scenarios With Presence of Immobile Persons RADOJE B. JEVTIĆ, Electrotechnical school „Nikola Tesla“, Niš Professional paper UDC: 614.8.084 DOI: 10.5937/tehnika2006814J The increase in urban population leads to the lack of housing in cities. One of potential solutions for this problem is to build tall residential buildings. The height of this objects, in recent times, ranges from several tens of meters even to several hundreds of meters, while the number of residents ranges from several hundred even to several thousands. Although these objects have built related to modern standards and technologies, with usage of modern materials and machines, problems can happen. One of particularly complex and hard problem presents the evacuation of residents in case of some disaster. Problem is much more severe and complicated if there are people with disabilities or people with special needs in the building. The potential solution for this problem can be the usage of simulation software. This paper was written to show the usage of simulation software Pathfinder in calculation of evacuation times for different evacuation scenarios, without the presence of immobile occupants, with presence of immobile occupants in the percentage of 5 % from complete occupant’s number and with presence of immobile occupants in the percentage of 10 % from complete occupant’s number. Key words: evacuation, residential, immobile, scenario 1. INTRODUCTION The advancement of science, the usage of many new technics and materials has led to the advancement High residential buildings present the past, the in architecture, unthinkable before.

One of the most important reasons driven the achievement is the continuously evolvement of structural systems. In this paper, previous classifications of structural systems are summarized and different types of structural systems are introduced. Besides the structural systems, innovations in other aspects of today's design of high-rise buildings including damping systems, construction techniques, elevator systems as well as sustainability are presented and discussed.

  • Dubai-Marina-Critical-Approach2
    Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation José Aragüez Columbia University Fred Levrat Studio_Summer 2008 06/16/2008 Dubai Marina_Critical Approach Introduction Comparable to the most exclusive waterfront developments in the world's leading cities, the marina will contain over 200 high‐rise buildings and comprise of an area of 50 million square feet. Upon completion it will be the world’s largest man made marina. It was carved along a 3.34km (2 mile) stretch of Dubai's shoreline and is a mixed‐use canal‐city inspired in the Venetian tradition. It will accommodate over 120 thousand people in their luxury apartment towers and villas, with a unique waterfront view. Dubai Marina is the center of Dubai’s new, fast paced business hub. The Marina’s neighbors include Internet City, where the region’s news and other communication professionals have made their home including Microsoft and Reuters, the renowned American University in Dubai, as well as, the forward‐thinking Knowledge Village. Dubai Marina is also conveniently close to Emaar Business Park and Jebel Ali Free Zone. In the Dubai Marina numerous skyscrapers are under developement. Most towers are mid range skyscrapers between 150 and over 200 meters tall. Already today it can be assumed that it will have one of the world‐wide largest high‐rise densities, comparable to Hong Kong and Manhattan. These skyscrapers over 300 meters height are either finished or are under construction: Infinity Tower: with 330 meters it will be the highest skyscraper, which has a 90º twist in the design. Princess Tower: this tower with 414 meters will be the highest residential building of the world.
