Abstract

Lack of empty areas in cities and demand for new spaces lead people to increase the number of floors in accordance with developments on the technology. Increase of high-rise buildings brought along problems such as evacuation. Evacuation of high-rise buildings is a complex research area with numerous diameters. Evacuation time, occupant load and human behavior are some of the basic diameters within this area. In this paper, the literature on evacuation of high-rise buildings is reviewed to reveal the point reached in this research area. Future research is needed on evacuation of high-rise buildings in Turkey, considering the number of high-rise buildings is increasing and the literature on the topic is quite limited in Turkey.
