САЖЕТАК / ABSTRACT:

Evacuation presents very important, complex and always open and actual task and problem. Experience showed that even well calculated evacuation plans can have errors, mistakes and oversights. As an example, it is almost impossible to predict humans` behavior in stress and panic situations what can extremely endanger evacuation and cause many new victims. As a standard evacuation procedure, during construction of some object, it is necessary to calculate evacuation time needed for evacuation. But, even with a proper calculation, suppresses and unpredictable events are frequent. So, it is the best way to predict as many possible evacuation scenarios. One of the best ways for that purpose is the use of simulation software. The simulation software, as a consequence of Industry 4.0, enables many benefits in the sense of precision, prediction, calculation of evacuation times, determining of evacuation routes and their optimizations. In the future, this software will be consolidated with artificial intelligence with optimized results.

In this paper, several typical evacuation examples were presented with use of simulation software Pathfinder (version 2023), for high residential buildings as a particularly complex and hard objects for evacuation.
