Hotel fire exit standards

Hotels are public gathering places, and the state is very strict on fire safety management of public gathering places. Anyone who opens a hotel must declare to the public security and fire department before opening. To open such a place in a private house, you need to go to the fire protection agency to change the building's usage (because it is a private house, the original usage is residential).

If there are more than 200 square meters on the 1st and 2nd floors, as long as the evacuation aisle is not far from the safety exit, one safety exit can be set up. The clear width of the evacuation aisle should not be less than 1.1 meters, which is safe. The clear width of the exit evacuation door shall not be less than 0.9 meters, and light evacuation signs and fire emergency lighting must be installed to maintain visual continuity.

Things to note about hotel fire escapes:

First, the design of fire escapes should be based on the hotel’s staircase design, whether they are smoke-proof, closed stairs, or other types. The properties of stairs directly affect the operability of fire escapes.

Second, fire-fighting staircases generally have quantity requirements. The larger the hotel, the more requirements for similar staircases. A small hotel may only need one fire-fighting staircase. However, the dimensions are designed and constructed in accordance with national standards and local standards.

Third, ventilation must be provided. Fire stairs serve as escape passages and require a large amount of air under special circumstances, so as to ensure the safety of escaping personnel.

Fourth, strictly place other items in the fire escape. This is the most basic attempt.

Fifth, when designing a fire exit in a business hotel, it must be designed as a fireproof door, and there must be an independent lighting system in the passage.

Sixth, fire escapes must be carefully dismantled and modified to prevent collapse, and there must be no water and electricity pipes to avoid unnecessary safety hazards.
