[0004] Fire
doors are purely used as building
fire protection components. The purpose of installing them in the fire compartments of buildings,
elevator front rooms, stairwells, and evacuation walkways is to prevent the spread of fire and provide safe passages for evacuation. Fire
doors must play a role in
fire prevention. One of the important conditions is whether it can maintain a normally
closed state. Practice has proved that it is difficult to maintain a normally
closed state for fire doors installed in
elevator front rooms, stairwells, and evacuation walkways. In order to facilitate the opening and maintenance of fire doors The fire protection function of the
closed state, people design and install an automatic door closing device (door closer) on the
fire door, through the automatic door closing device, although the
fire door realizes the automatic closing function, but the normally closed
fire door must maintain The normally closed state of the building also hinders the
natural ventilation,
light transmission and barrier-free passage of passing pedestrians and objects in the building itself under non-fire conditions. Installing normally closed fire doors in buildings is a preventive fire protection measure. It is useless. The probability of a normally closed fire door encountering a fire is one in ten thousand, or even one in one hundred thousand, one in a million, and the elevator front room, stairwell, and evacuation walkway are used as the access to the building , the frequency of people passing and goods flowing is 10,000 times, 100,000 times, or even a million times higher than the probability of fire. Installing a normally closed fire door in the above position means that people can live in a safe state without fire in daily life. , to open the fire doors every day, to pass through obstacles all the time, and in case of emergencies including fire accidents, it also hinders the speed of people's evacuation. In addition, normally closed fire doors are located on public walkways , not only affects the
natural ventilation and
light transmission of the building, but its shared
door handle will lead to the spread of infectious diseases and affect
public health; the resistance of some closing devices of fire doors with unstable quality will also make 5-6 years old Children under the age are unable to open the fire doors and go out for outdoor activities. Therefore, although the functional normally closed fire doors installed on the elevator front room, stairwell and evacuation walkway can prevent the spread of fire, they are more for People bring inconvenient traffic and obstacles to moving objects in their daily work and life, which has an
impact on the natural ventilation,
light transmission, and heat dissipation of the building itself. Normally closed fire doors in elevator front rooms, stairwells and evacuation walkways in hotels, restaurants, office buildings, industrial and mining enterprises, underground buildings and high-rise residential buildings, etc., bring obstacles and troubles to people's daily work and life, It is much higher than the understanding of
fire prevention. In the reality that people's
fire prevention awareness is not strong and disaster prevention knowledge is lacking, it is difficult for the normally closed fire doors installed in the above-mentioned building parts to maintain a normally closed state, and most of them are opened, which is useless. Over time , People ignore the role of normally closed fire doors installed in elevator front rooms, stairwells, evacuation walkways, etc. What is it used for? After the project is completed and passed the fire inspection by the fire department, its fire protection function is mostly ignored by people, and its unfavorable factors have become the object of people's troubles and the reason for damage, and some are even destroyed. Dismantled, lost the expected disaster prevention function. According to the "Fire Law", "Code for
Fire Protection Design of Buildings" and "Code for
Fire Protection Design of High-rise Civil Buildings" and related codes and regulations, it has constituted a major
fire hazard. Due to this The ubiquity and complexity of fire hidden dangers in buildings has brought great difficulties to the
elimination of hidden dangers. In terms of economy and
efficacy, it is an invalid investment, which not only causes huge losses to the economy, but also endangers the safety of people's lives and properties. It has brought a serious
threat, and also brought many potential fire hazards to the
fire safety of buildings.
