Abstract
The report evaluates in which manner a sprinkler system affects evacuation safety in hospitals.
Primarily hospitals are categorised in two groups, one where patients are able to evacuate by themselves and one where patients need nurses to evacuate.
Margins to untenable conditions during fire are simulated and compared individually depending on the presence of a sprinkler system.
The evaluation shows that the need of a sprinkler system is greatly needed in hospitals where the patients are immobilised.
