16、ion of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards 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 committe
17、e. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also 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
18、with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees 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 app
19、roval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. 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 or all such patent rights. ISO 23601 was prepared by Technical Commi

21、e is a need to standardize a system of communicating escape routes in facilities that relies as little as possible on the use of words to achieve understanding. Continued growth in international trade, travel and mobility of labour requires a common method of conveying this important safety informat
22、ion to the occupants of facilities. The use of this International Standard is expected to reduce risk by providing a means of improved training and education and to reduce possible confusion in times of emergency. Through the use of ISO 7010 safety signs, colour coding and specific design requiremen
23、ts, this International Standard establishes a common method of illustrating the position of the viewer in relation to designated escape routes leading to emergency exits and the location of fire safety and emergency equipment close and adjacent to escape routes. Escape plans are an integral part of
24、a facilitys system of safety signs and play an integral role in a building owners fire safety management plan. Escape plans are a necessary component of a facilitys safety way guidance system (see ISO 16069). NOTE Some countries statutory regulations may differ in some respect from those given in th

Users should therefore consider printing this document using
27、 a colour printer. 1 Scope This International Standard establishes design principles for displayed escape plans that contain information relevant to fire safety, escape, evacuation and rescue of the facilitys occupants. These plans may also be used by intervention forces in case of emergency. These
28、plans are intended to be displayed as signs in public areas and workplaces. This International Standard is not intended to cover the plans to be used by external safety services nor detailed professional technical drawings for use by specialists. 2 Normative references The following referenced docum
29、ents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies.

35、anagement procedures shall have determined a number of essential elements to be shown on the escape plans. The escape plans shall be a reflection of the study of the following information: a) fire safety manuals and procedures; b) current site and facility plan drawing(s) with key features of the fa
36、cility as verified by site visit; c) identification of all escape routes; d) evacuation planning documentation including expected people movement and any instructions given and the way they are to be given; e) location of all fire-fighting equipment and alarms; f) location of emergency equipment and
37、 evacuation aids; g) required actions to be taken in case of emergency or fire; h) location of refuge and assembly points. The purpose of escape plans is to help people orient themselves in relation to the planned escape route. In this way, the escape plan complements the facilitys safety way guidan
38、ce system (see ISO 16069). 5 Design requirements The escape plan shall be designed in accordance with the evacuation strategy of the facility and addresses the specific needs of the occupants of the premises or part thereof. The following requirements shall be met by any escape plan. a) The exact lo
39、cation of the user shall be indicated on the escape plan. b) Escape plans shall use colour. SANS 23601:2010This s tandard may only be used and printed by approved subscription and freemailing clients of the SABS .ISO 23601:2009(E) ISO 2009 All rights reserved 3c) The scale of the escape plan is depe
40、ndent on the size of the facility, the level of detail to be illustrated and the intended location of the escape plan. Scales no less than the following shall be used: 1:250 for large-sized facilities; 1:100 for small- to medium-sized facilities; 1:350 for plans displayed in individual rooms. Detail
41、ed elements such as stairs or corridors may be drawn to a larger scale to increase conspicuity or to accommodate the placement of safety signs on the escape plan. For a series of escape plans for the same facility, the same scale should be used. For certain specific areas of the facility, e.g. parki
42、ng areas or technical spaces, other scales may be used to recognize the extent of empty space. d) In a set of facility plans, all defined areas shall be illustrated consistently. e) In order to achieve sufficient visibility and legibility, the vertical illumination on escape plans shall be no less t
43、han 50 lx provided by the normal lighting. Where emergency lighting is provided in case of failure of the normal lighting, the vertical illumination on escape plans comprising ordinary materials or phosphorescent materials shall be no less than 5 lx. Where emergency lighting is not provided in case
44、of failure of the normal lighting or where a phosphorescent safety way guidance system according to ISO 16069 is provided, escape plans comprising phosphorescent materials may be used. In all cases, the phosphorescent material shall be no less than classification C according to ISO 17398. f) In orde
45、r to identify safety colours on the plans, the minimum value for the colour-rendering index, Ra, from a lamp shall be W 40. The luminaire shall not substantially subtract from this. Where escape plans are based on phosphorescent materials, excitation shall be from white fluorescent lamps. Low-pressu
46、re sodium lamps shall not be used. g) The background of an escape plan shall have the safety colour white or phosphorescent white as defined in ISO 3864-1:2002, Table 4. h) The minimum size of an escape plan shall be 297 mm 420 mm (A3) except for escape plans to be located in individual rooms where
47、the plan size may be reduced to 210 mm 297 mm (A4). A tolerance of 5 % is acceptable. i) Escape plans shall be up to date. j) The orientation of the plan as displayed shall be related to the viewer so that locations on the left of the plan are to the viewers left and locations on the right of the pl
48、an are to the viewers right. k) When safe condition and fire-fighting equipment are indicated on the escape plan, they shall use safety signs that are the same as in their installed location in the facility and both shall conform to ISO 7010. l) Escape plans shall have a legend. m) Escape plans shal
49、l have a standardized header, including the words “Escape plan” in the language(s) of the country in which the plan is used. n) Escape plans shall show the position of the assembly points as part of the escape plan detail or on an overview plan. 6 Size of plan elements The following requirements shall be met. a) Information presented on escape plans shall be legible at the intended viewing distance. The minimum lettering height shall be 2 mm. Fonts should be chosen that maximize the legibility at the intend
