Abstract
Regardless of the type of disaster a building undergoes, personal safety, property preservation, and attribution of responsibility are the three assessment indicators that summarize the effectiveness of disaster prevention, evacuation, and rescue operations when the area of a building affected by a disaster endangers personal safety. The only possible response under these conditions is for people to immediately leave the dangerous area and escape to a safe and secure area. Therefore, both the timeliness of evacuation and rescue advice directly determine the outcome of the disaster. This study reflects on current fire protection systems and puts forward the approaches of Prevention Level for Deployment in Advance and Spatial Transformation by Human–Machine Collaboration to deal with disasters and promote building safety. A real-time fire protection system architecture for disaster prevention, evacuation, and rescue operations in buildings is proposed and prototyped for a proof of concept. The architecture promotes simulated verification of the effectiveness of disaster prevention, evacuation, and rescue operations at the building planning and design stage.
