The work of preparing International S
9、tandards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, als
10、o take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committe
11、es is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. In exceptional circumstances, w
12、hen a technical committee has collected data of a different kind from that which is normally published as an International Standard (“state of the art”, for example), it may decide by a simple majority vote of its participating members to publish a Technical Report. A Technical Report is entirely in
13、formative in nature and does not have to be reviewed until the data it provides are considered to be no longer valid or useful. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any

ISO/TR 25743:2010(E) ISO 2010 All rights reserved vIntroduction This Technical Report has been prepared in response to a request for an investigation into the implications of t
15、he use of lifts 1)(elevators) for the evacuation of persons during various types of building emergencies. There has been considerable debate over recent years with regards to the hazards and risk associated with using lifts for evacuation. There is clearly a need to determine what hazards and risks
16、exist and what can be done to the building and lifts to minimize these risks if lifts were to be used. The purpose of this Technical Report is to investigate the risks to persons using lifts to evacuate a building during an emergency. Lift engineers and firefighters were involved in the production o
17、f this Technical Report. It is fully recognized that lift engineers are not experts in building design or fire engineering; therefore, this Technical Report does not attempt to resolve issues in these areas. It aims to make clear to those persons involved in building design and fire engineering the
18、issues that need to be addressed. Not all of the issues set out in this Technical Report need to be addressed in all building designs. There are many reasons why a building can need to be evacuated, such as a fire, explosion, chemical or biological attack, flooding, storm damage or earthquake. Not a
19、ll of these are relevant to every building and other possible risks are so unlikely to occur that they can be disregarded. It is the responsibility of the building designer(s) to determine whether a particular risk is sufficiently great to require addressing. If, for example, a small office block is
20、 being designed for a mid-town area, it is within the realms of possibility that it can be subjected to an explosion or chemical attack (as a result of terrorism). It is not, however, very likely to be the case unless there exists some particular reason to make it attractive or susceptible. In most
21、cases, the risk of these events is probably so low as to make it unnecessary for them to be addressed. If a building is intended to be the headquarters of the military, this increases the likelihood of it being subjected to some form of attack. It is, in that case, necessary to consider the effect o
22、f an explosion in or close to the building or a chemical agent being introduced into the building. A building constructed in an area where earthquakes do not normally occur need not have provisions made for such an event. If a building is intended to be located in the centre of a city to form a pres
23、tigious landmark, consideration of all the possible events that might occur can be essential. It is the responsibility of the designer of the building to determine by risk assessment or other methods what events reasonably need to be addressed. Once this is done, the chart provided in Figure 1 can b
24、e used to see what needs to be considered, if lifts are to play a part in any evacuation strategy. A lift or lifts can allow disabled persons to evacuate a building in relative ease, but if it is thought that lifts can play a role in general evacuation, it is possible for them to make a significant
25、contribution to reducing the general evacuation time. This depends on the building size, number of lifts, etc. This Technical Report does not concentrate on the evacuation of disabled persons, but instead highlights and addresses the hazards and risks to which all users can be exposed if lifts are u
26、sed for evacuation. Even if it is thought that lifts can play a part in a general evacuation, it could prove to be uneconomic. It is not suggested that lifts should replace stairs or that using lifts instead of stairs will increase evacuation times in many building designs. 1) Hereinafter, the term
27、lift” is used instead of the term “elevator”. In addition, the term “lift” is also used instead of the terms “lifts, escalators and moving walks”. TECHNICAL REPORT ISO/TR 25743:2010(E) ISO 2010 All rights reserved 1Lifts (elevators) Study of the use of lifts for evacuation during an emergency 1 Sco
28、pe This Technical Report investigates and highlights the main risks associated with using lifts (elevators) for the evacuation of persons in various types of emergency. The types of emergency under study arise from fire, flood, earthquake, explosion, biological or chemical attack, gas leakage, light
29、ning or storm damage in the building being studied or a building adjacent to it. The purpose of this Technical Report is to provide a process for making decisions relevant to the design of lifts and buildings, in order to determine if a given design can enable the lifts involved to be used with an a
30、cceptable level of safety. It is not intended that all buildings be designed for all risks and, consequently, it is not intended that all lifts incorporate all features mentioned. It is the responsibility of the building designer to determine events that are likely to occur, given the buildings impo
31、rtance, function, occupancy, status, location, use, size, etc. It is not the responsibility of, nor is it possible for, lift manufacturers to determine whether or not a lift can be used safely as a means of evacuation in a given building. It is the responsibility of other parties to make this decisi
32、on. The lift manufacturer can only advise on the capabilities of a particular lift design or the status of the lift at a particular point in time. The philosophy adopted in this Technical Report can be applied to any building, be it large, small, new or existing. In practice, its application to exis
33、ting building designs can prove to be difficult and uneconomic in many instances. 2 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 2.1 building management system BMS system capable of making intelligent decisions based on information sent to it 2.

39、to study a particular building design. Where reference is made to adjacent buildings, the intention is to consider the effects of incidents in the adjacent buildings on the building design under study. Steps 1 to 8 of the chart contain various numbered boxes. The numbers do not run in any particular
40、 sequence and are provided for reference only. Certain boxes contain a series of upper case letters and a number, e.g. TSR16B. These are inserted at points where some form of design provision needs to be made. TSR stands for “technical solution required”. The number is the reference of the technical
41、 solution and the last letter gives an indication of who needs to address it. “B” is used to indicate that the issue is building-related. “L” is used when the issue is lift-related and “BL” where both are involved and a joint solution is required. ISO/TR 25743:2010(E) ISO 2010 All rights reserved 3P
42、ossible technical solutions have been identified for lift-related issues and these have been further studied using the ISO 14798 risk methodology. Where a building solution is required, this has been left to those responsible for building design, although some pointers are given to assist in the tho
43、ught process. An explanation of each TSR is given in Annex A and a summary of the points is given in Annex B. 4.2 Example of use of the decision chart In the decision chart, Figure 1 a), box 1, states: Emergency detection system or building management detects problem in building A or an adjacent bui
44、lding B TSR00B. This TSR assumes that either some system has detected an emergency or the building management has detected it. In the case of building management, it is likely that they are observing an event or have had the situation reported to them. TSR00B indicates that a technical solution is r
45、equired to detect emergencies and B indicates this is not a lift issue, but a building issue, to be solved by the building designer. The solution in low-risk buildings can be a building management procedure to deal with the situation or a simple detection system. In high-risk buildings it can be a v
46、ery sophisticated detection system. It is the responsibility of the building designer to determine the level of sophistication required to address the given building risk. There is no need for building A to have a system which is also monitoring building B. Building B would have its own system and i
47、n the event of a fire, staff in building A are likely to see the adjacent building being evacuated or to see the fire. Box 178 asks “Is the emergency a fire in building A?” and references TSR41B. Building A refers to the building design being studied, but this building can be put at risk by events i
48、n an adjacent building. In the decision chart, an adjacent building is referred to as Building B. TSR41B indicates that this is an issue to be addressed by building design. Some means should be provided to enable building management to tell if the emergency is a fire in their building. If it is assu
49、med that the emergency is not a fire in the building being studied (building A), then one moves to box 174: Is it some other emergency in building A? TSR16B. If the answer to this is yes, box 12 is next. This explains that an explosion, terrorist attack, gas, biological attack, water, structural failure, lightning strike or storm has occurred in the building and that it is possible for it to affect the building structure. These emergencies are deliberately selected because their outcome covers almost all possible emergencies. Other emergenc
