This study aims to propose an improvement of fire safety management plans for buildings, such as apartment complexes and schools, within a 10 km radius of industrial complexes. It utilizes an off-site consequence analysis program to reflect the toxic impact on national industrial complexes and surrounding areas. The ALOHA program was utilized to analyze the impact of toxicity due to a hydrogen chloride leak, a hazardous material. The results showed that the area with AEGL-2 and above ranged from 3.1 km to 10 km, the AEGL-3 area ranged from 1.9 km to 7.3 km. The ASET was measured to be between 3 and 24 minutes. Due to the impact of toxicity, it is necessary to prepare fire safety management plans for buildings, such as apartment complexes and schools that are within a 10 km radius from industrial complexes. These safety plans incorporate the hydrogen chloride risk assessment results, ASET, weather conditions, and coordination with the local community.

The purpose of this study is to use an evacuation simulation program to measure the change in evacuation time according to the width of the evacuation route due to the installation of an intermediate sales counter and the placement of a shopping cart between the sales counters of a large supermarket and to analyze the results. Currently, the “Distribution Industry Development Act” does not regulate the size and installation method of intermediate sales counters installed between sales counters that serve as practical evacuation routes in the event of a fire at a large supermarket, the size of shopping carts, etc. Considering this, we set evacuation route widths of 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, and 100 cm and compared and analyzed evacuation times according to various variables in the facility space. As a result of the experiment, as the width of the evacuation route was expanded, there was a significant difference in the evacuation time, from a maximum of 468.3 seconds to a minimum of 320.8 seconds. Considering the safety of evacuees in large supermarkets used by many people, it is time to regulate the size of intermediate sales stands installed between sales counters in large supermarkets and shopping carts that can become obstacles in an emergency.
