Hjärupslundsskolan - en brandteknisk riskvärdering

Sammanfattning: This report is an evaluation of the fire safety in a recently buildt public facility and school: Hjärupslundsskolan. The school is a two storey building with a basement. Based on the inspection and statistics for school fires, a number of fire scenarios were constructed. Of these, four were chosen and studied in more detail. Times until critical conditions occurred were obtained and compared to the time needed to evacuate in order to evaluate the safety of the school and the conditions during an evacuation. In three of the four cases the persons directly affected by the fire could evacuate before critical conditions were reached. In the fourth case too short time was left for evacuation but this can be improved. To further increase the safety at the school some other improvements were suggested. The school can be evacuated fairly safely, but the safety can be improved.
