6、nce and Use4.1 Photoluminescent safety markings may be used toindicate the direction of the means of egress (escape route).NOTE 1Specification E 2072 covers photometric requirements forphotoluminescent (phosphorescent) safety materials.4.2 Photoluminescent safety markings can be divided intothe foll

7、owing categories:4.2.1 Floor Mounted MarkingsThese markings includefloor tiles, stair treads, stair nosings, floor inserts, tactilewarning strips, coatings, epoxy casting resins, and othermarkings attached to the floor.4.2.2 Wall Mounted MarkingsThese markings includecoatings, wall bases, tapes, cor

8、ner guards, signage, exit maps,guidance strips, and other markings attached to walls, doors,handrails, columns, and other obstructions.5. Recommended Applications5.1 Floor Proximity Exit Path MarkingThis provides acontinuous delineation of the means of egress (escape route)from the occupied area to

9、any exit doors that lead directly tothe public way, except as interrupted by intersecting corridors.Floor proximity exit path markings should be at least 100-mm(4-in.) wide in all locations. If narrower widths are used, theluminance shall increase, as indicated in Specification E 2072,section on Ins

10、tallation Site, On-Site Luminance. Floor prox-imity exit path markings should be applied to the floor surfaceor installed on the wall, close to the floor (see Figs. 1-3).5.2 Continuous Wall and Floor Markings in Corridors5.2.1 Corridors 2-m (2.2-yd) or wider should be marked onboth sides.5.2.2 In de

11、ad end corridors only, the direction of travelshould be indicated by directional indicators pointing in thedirection of the means of egress (escape route). The maximumspacing between the individual directional indicators should be1-m (1.1-yd).5.3 Marking of Exit Doors and Emergency ExitsExitdoors an

12、d emergency exits in the course of the egress pathshould be marked with high and floor proximity exit signs.Such doors should also either be marked all around byhighlighting their entire frames or by leading the pathwaymarking up to the level of the door handle on the side of thedoor where the handl

13、e is located (see Figs. 1-3). To aid inlocating the door release, its knob/latch/bar should be markedby placing photoluminescent material behind it or on it. (seeFigs. 2 and 3).1This guide is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee E12 on Color andAppearance and is the direct responsibility of Subc

16、hat do notallow re-entry into the building should be marked by photolu-minescent material connecting the wall markings at the sameheight (see Figs. 2 and 3).5.4 Marking of Stairs and RampsPhotoluminescent mark-ings on stairs, ramps, and landings should clearly indicate theirbeginning, course, and en

17、d. Markings should be applied to thetread, the landing, and, where present, to the side(s) of thestairs (see Figs. 2 and 3).5.5 Handrails should be marked as part of the exit guidanceprocess. The marking may be on the handrail or applied to thewall (see Figs. 2 and 3).5.6 Obstacles, Protrusions and

18、Other Hazards should beidentified with photoluminescent warning markings to beclearly visible in a blackout condition (see Fig. 1).5.7 Fire Fighting Equipment should be marked by a sign(for example, hose station) or by placing photoluminescentmaterial behind it (for example, a fire extinguisher) to

19、aid infinding such equipment in darkness situations (see Figs. 1-3).5.8 Exit Maps should be provided on each floor, locatednext to the elevators, if present, or by the main stair(s), if noelevators are present (see Figs. 1 and 4).5.9 At any exit door leading to a stair, a sign should beprovided that

20、 identifies the stair (see Figs. 1 and 5).5.10 In stairs, a sign should be provided on each floorlanding that identifies the stair, the floor, and whether re-entryinto the building is acceptable (see Fig. 2, Fig. 3 and Fig. 6).5.11 Exit SignsHigh and floor proximity photolumines-cent exit signs may

21、be used. Listed signs complying withUL924, Standard for Emergency Lighting and Power Equip-ment, tested by a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory,shall be used (see Figs. 1-3).6.
