Abstract
This report is a fire safety evaluation of Stockholm Public Library. Using FDS5 and Simulex the library has been evaluated in regards to egress time and the time to untenable conditions. Certain criteria’s apply to when untenable conditions are reached; these include smoke layer height, radiation, visibility and temperature. Three different fire scenarios have been studied in three different parts of the library. The design and assumptions made in the fire scenarios and their impact on the results are discussed in the report. The time to egress relative to the time to untenable conditions is unsatisfactory in one part of the building, barnavdelningen. This leads to that the level of safety is considered unacceptable in this part. Included... (More)

The time to egress relative to the time to untenable conditions is unsatisfactory in one part of the building, barnavdelningen. This leads to that the level of safety is considered unacceptable in this part. Included in the report are appropriate measures to be taken to reach an acceptable level of safety. Suggestions to generally increase the level of safety for the public and increase property protection are also included. (Less)
