Abstract
When a fire starts in a building a great threat against personal safety arises and this is especially true for the cases where people are unaccustomed to their environments. To diminish this threat it’s of
great importance that adequate time for evacuation is available. In this paper students at the Fire Protection Engineering program examine the system that is currently in place to ensure the safety of guests and personnel at Arken Hotel & Art Garden Spa. This is done by setting acceptable risk criteria, evaluating risks, determining available and required time, analyzing the effects of important factors
and finally reaching a conclusion about personal safety. The method involves literature studies, calculations, simulations and... (More)

In this paper students at the Fire Protection Engineering program examine the system that is currently in place to ensure the safety of guests and personnel at Arken Hotel & Art Garden Spa. This is done by setting acceptable risk criteria, evaluating risks, determining available and required time, analyzing the effects of important factors
and finally reaching a conclusion about personal safety. The method involves literature studies, calculations, simulations and logical thinking. Where the safety is found inadequate different solutions are examined and recommended. The examination shows that the safety of guests cannot be completely guaranteed in all parts of the hotel without a few building modifications to reach the acceptable criteria. (Less)
