Abstract

Building evacuation is an integral part of public safety. This paper used Pathfinder software to simulate coordinated elevator evacuation in high-rise teaching buildings, analyzing its impact on evacuation efficiency. The study shows that the higher the floors, the more prominent the role of elevators becomes. In a 19-story building, using a direct elevator strategy is most effective, reducing evacuation time by 135.2 s. This paper provides optimization strategies for coordinated elevator evacuation in high-rise teaching buildings, which are significantly important for enhancing the safety evacuation performance of teaching buildings.
