Abstract
This report is a part of the mandatory course “Fire Safety Evaluation” given by the Department of Fire Safety Engineering and Systems Safety at Lund Institute of Technology, Sweden. The report aims to give an evaluation of the personal safety on Slagthuset in Malmö in case of fire, only taking human hazards into consideration. The procedure is to compare the time to egress with the time to critical conditions for different chosen scenarios. Each scenario represents the worst case with a comparative high probability; therefore the chosen scenarios are used for evaluation of the buildings total Fire Protection level. Computer programs such as CFAST, Argos, Detact‐T2 and Simulex are used in
order to help simulate the scenarios. This report... (More)

Computer programs such as CFAST, Argos, Detact‐T2 and Simulex are used in
order to help simulate the scenarios. This report found that there is a possibility of human hazards in case of a fire and improvements are needed in order to guarantee a safe egress at all times, especially
in the theater. A list of suggested improvements is given. (Less)
