In single storey storage and industrial buildings, there are various uses to which smoke control systems can be put in the case of a fire:
-
To facilitate escape by providing smoke free escape routes.
- To reduce the likelihood of damage or loss to production or stock.
- To enable the fire-fighters to better see the fire and therefore to extinguish
it more speedily and effectively.
- To permit greater travel distances to exits to be designed in, without
the need for compartmentation, resulting in a larger building plan.
A well designed smoke control system should be able to maintain adequate smoke free escape conditions at low level to allow the building to be evacuated with minimum risk of smoke inhalation, injury or death.
