ANALYSIS AND EVALUATION OF THE TIME REQUIRED TO ARRIVE AT THE SPOT FOR FIRST AID IN LARGE-SCALE URBAN FACILITIES

大規模都市施設における救急の現場到達所要時間計算式の構築及び分析・評価

This article analyzes the time required to arrive at the spot for first aid in recent large-scale urban facilities with skyscrapers in preparation for super aged society of Japan. For the horizontal movement time, a formula was constructed by combining the "weighed Voronoi diagrams in the Manhattan distance". For the vertical movement time, a formula for a bus was applied to fire service elevators. The result on a model skyscraper with three types of building core showed that the travel time varies from 19 seconds to 4 minutes, which suggests the effect of the improvement in the operation of elevators.
