How many high-rise buildings increase fire hazards

Incomplete fire equipment, fire exits are not open, safety doors closed, no one in the fire control room ... ... With the increase of high-rise buildings in Liuzhou, there are also many fire hazards. What are the most common fire hazards in tall buildings? To this end, we conducted a survey.

A hidden danger:

Missing fire equipment

According to the fire department staff, high-rise residential buildings must have fire-fighting equipment, fire sprinklers and smoke-sense automatic fire extinguishing equipment, fire-fighting elevators and evacuation indication systems. The author has learned that at present, in some high-rise residential communities, the incomplete or missing fire-fighting equipment is common, and some buildings cannot even find a fire extinguisher.

Here, the fire department reminded the residents that public fire-fighting equipment should not be taken as their own and should protect fire-fighting equipment. In addition, if the fire equipment is not fully equipped or lost, the property company shall promptly complete the equipment.

Hidden trouble two:

Fire exits are mostly occupied

“Our community car parks are relatively tense. Some car owners usually come back to the fire exit after parking without parking spaces. Usually it does not matter if there is a fire or other emergencies. It would be very dangerous.” Mr. Zhang, a citizen, lived on his own. The firefighting of the district’s fire exit was very worried.

The firefighting aisle should be a special dedicated road for fire trucks to use for disaster relief. However, in some communities, the situation of poor fire exits is very common. Some residential firefighting avenues near restaurants or entertainment places even become “free parking areas for customers”. ". The author has learned that at present, there are several situations in which the residential fire exits are not unimpeded: some communities do not allow vehicles to enter, and concrete piers or other obstacles are artificially set; some communities are chaotically built on fire exits; In order to prevent the theft of the closed-end management of the district; at the same time, private cars parked at random, but also become the most important factor blocking fire exits.

Hidden trouble three:

Fire doors are not kept closed

Many high-rise building fire doors open, such as a high-rise buildings in Liuzhou, there is a majority of stairwells normally closed fire doors in the normally open state, and most of the door closers damaged; safety exit fire doors in the middle of the staircase was Change to glass door.

In the investigation of the fire department, it was found that the fire doors in some high-rise residential quarters were often opened artificially. The reason for this was the convenience of accessibility for residents. “Fire doors are the fire protection components that must be installed in the safety exits of high-rise residential buildings and stairwells of commercial buildings.” The person in charge of the fire department said that the purpose of installing fire doors is to delay the spread of fire in the event of an accident and to strive for more escape time. Opportunity, so it should be ensured that it is normally closed.

Hidden trouble four:

The stairwell became a room

“The high-rise public rental areas are relatively large, so the indoor area is relatively small. There are some old clothes, newspapers, etc. in the family that have not been put aside, so they are placed on the stairs.” The fire department found that some residential buildings are especially old. In the community, the phenomenon of stacking articles in the corridor is relatively common, and the debris that is piled up is mostly flammable and combustible products such as newspapers, cartons, and old furniture. Some households even have stoves on the stairs. If they encounter a fire source such as cigarette butts, they are prone to fire. In the event of a fire, debris in the stairwell is still a major obstacle for the residents to escape.

In addition, some of the fire exits originally used to connect several units were privately separated by the owners and formed their own closed “balconies”.

Hidden danger five:

External insulation material is not up to standard

Some building exterior insulation materials failed, once the fire is highly flammable.

On March 14 this year, the Ministry of Public Security issued a clear request for notice that the burning performance of exterior insulation materials for civil buildings must reach class A. So, how can we ensure that high-rise buildings wear a safe “coat”?

The relevant personages in the fire department suggested that the government should attach great importance to the strict implementation of fire safety laws and regulations, introduce relevant policies, and implement the safety of high-rise external wall thermal insulation materials in the aspects of building planning, design, construction, and supervision, and clarify the lifelong responsibility system for designers.

Strict product market access system, functional departments should earnestly perform their duties, record the wall insulation materials for entering the Liuzhou construction market, refuse flammable insulation materials to enter the market, and severely crack down on counterfeit products and products without production licenses. . At the same time, the firefighting department will also irregularly supervise and inspect the insulation materials used in the external walls of high-rise buildings, provide training to the construction personnel on fire safety knowledge, and jointly build safety nets.
