    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.

  • Müh 100 Mühendisliğe Giriş
    CHAPTER 1 THE ENGINEER 1.1. INTRODUCTION The root of the word “engineer” derives from “engine” and “ingenious” both of which come from the Latin root “ingenerate” meaning “to create”. “Mühendis” in Turkish derives from “hendese” which means “geometry” and thus mühendis is the one who makes dimensional calculations. “Hendesehane” means “School of Engineering”. Engineers are individuals who combine knowledge of science, mathematics and economics to solve technical problems that confront society. Main difference between scientists and engineers is the cost analysis. Early in human history, there were no formal schools to teach engineering. Early engineers were those, “Alaylı” in Turkish, who had a gift for manipulating the physical world to achieve a practical goal. Often, it would be learned through apprenticeship with experienced practitioners. Current engineers are educated, “Okullu” in Turkish, in mathematics, science and economics. According to ABET (Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology, USA) engineers must demonstrate that they have: (a) an ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering, (b) an ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data, (c) an ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs, (d) an ability to function on multi-disciplinary teams, (e) an ability to identify, formulate, and solve engineering problems, (f) an understanding of professional and ethical responsibility, (g) an ability to communicate effectively, (h) the broad education necessary to understand the impact of engineering solutions in a global and societal context, (i) a recognition of the need for, and an ability to engage in life-long learning, (j) a knowledge of contemporary issues, (k) an ability to use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice.
