An Investigation of Frame-Core Tube Building Construction Sites on Safety Evacuation

FTBCS safety evacuation of frame-core tube buildings on construction sites (FTBCS) is one of the most challenging evacuation scenarios conceivable. This investigation proposes a practical calculation method and examines the parameters’ influence on safety evacuation in frame-core tube building construction sites. Firstly, the characteristics of constructors from 30 FTBCS in China are analyzed. After an investigation of 23,230 constructors, it was found that constructors have unique properties in gender ratio, age composition, and occupational age. Female constructors account for about 10%, and aged constructors account for 0.28%. Constructors within five years of occupational age account for about 26.39%. Evacuation speeds on different working faces including frames and core tubes are tested, and the decline coefficients of 0.80 and 0.70 are taken consideration into the evacuation model. Then, an exclusive evacuation time algorithm that is appropriate for FTBCS is proposed. Multiple parameters’ influence on safety evacuation is researched by numerical simulation. With a 5.0% growth of female gender ratio, aged constructors, and constructors within five years of occupational age, the average movement distance is increased by 10.32 m, 0.67 m, and 11.19 m, respectively. The age composition ratio and occupational age ratio mainly affect the evacuation process by evacuation speed and path programming, respectively, and the leading influencing factors are not distinct in their gender ratio effects. Optimization of construction layout can reduce the evacuation time from the horizontal direction plane effectively, and then relieve clustering and crowding on platforms.
