    1. Calm first. First of all, you must calm down, and if the fire is not big, you can take measures to extinguish it as soon as possible. If the fire is fierce, call the police at the first time and evacuate quickly.

    2. Pay attention to the wind direction. The evacuation direction should be determined according to the wind direction at the time of the fire, and before the fire spreads, quickly leave the disaster area in the direction of the headwind. Generally speaking, when the floor where the fire broke out is above your own floor, you should quickly run downstairs.

    When escaping, pay attention to closing the doors and windows on the passage to prevent and delay the flow of smoke to the escape passage.

    3. Cover your nose with a towel. Fire smoke has the characteristics of high temperature and high toxicity, and it is easy to cause respiratory scalding or poisoning after inhalation. Therefore, cover your mouth and nose with a wet towel when fleeing, and try to avoid shouting loudly to prevent smoke from entering your mouth.

    You can also find water to wet your clothes, cloth, etc. to cover your mouth and nose. When passing through the smoke zone, move as quickly as possible in the lowest position or in a prostrate position. Be careful to breathe small and shallow.

    4. Knotted rope escape. When the passage of the building is blocked by fire, and there is no way to escape, you can tear the sheets, quilt covers or curtains into ropes, tie the window sill firmly, and slide down the rope. If you have a rope at home, you can directly tie one end of it to a door, window cabinet or heavy object and climb down along the other end.

    In this process, it is necessary to pay attention to the use of both hands and feet (the feet are twisted into a clamping rope, and the hands are climbed up and down alternately), and the handle should be protected to prevent the hands from being taken off or worn out when sliding down.

    5. Temporary evacuation. When there is no way out, you should actively seek temporary shelter. In large-scale multi-purpose buildings, evacuation rooms located at the ends of elevators, corridors, and toilets can be used to avoid the hazards of fireworks.

    If you are temporarily trapped in the room, close all doors and windows leading to the fire area, block the cracks of the doors and windows with soaked bedding and clothing, and splash water to cool down to prevent external flames and smoke from entering. When trapped, take the initiative to contact the outside world so that you can be rescued as soon as possible.

    6. Hide against the wall. When firefighters enter a burning house, they grope along the walls, so when they are suffocated by smoke and lose their ability to save themselves, they should try to roll towards the wall or doorway. At the same time, doing so will also prevent the house from collapsing and injuring yourself.

    Everyone is praying for peace. But there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and people have good and bad luck. Once the fire came, surrounded by thick smoke and flames, many people died in the flames, and some survived.

    There are only desperate people, there is no desperate situation, "in the face of billowing smoke and raging flames, as long as you are calm and witty and use the knowledge of self-rescue and escape from the fire, you have a great possibility to save yourself."

    How to escape in a high-rise fire?

  3. Anonymous users2024-02-10

    01 When a fire breaks out in a high-rise building, the location of the ** should be correctly judged, and then the response method should be implemented according to the distance of the ** location from home. When escaping, you should choose an escape route and do not rush out. After soaking a towel or other items, cover your mouth and nose, and try to bend down to avoid harmful gases.

    Fire is a disaster caused by uncontrolled burning in time or space. In the new standard, fire is defined as uncontrolled combustion in time or space. Buildings designed and constructed according to the code in the community have escape stairs, passages or safety exits.

    In the event of a fire, it is necessary to choose a relatively safe staircase passage according to the situation. In high-rise buildings, the elevator power supply system can be powered off at any time in the event of a fire, or people will be trapped in the elevator due to the deformation of the elevator due to thermal action. At the same time, because the elevator shaft goes directly to all floors, the toxic smoke directly threatens the lives of the trapped people.

    Therefore, never take a regular elevator to escape.

    When it comes to the upper floor, first of all, you should correctly judge the location, which is located upstairs in your house: at this time, the smoke is going up, and the public can run from the evacuation stairs to the safety downstairs. **Located downstairs in your own home:

    Members of the public should remain calm and prepare for escape. If your home is a certain distance from the ** point, the public can stay still and wait for the rescue of the fire department. At this time, citizens should close the doors and windows to prevent smoke from entering their homes, pour water on towels, bedding and other items, and then stuff them into the cracks of the doors, and report the location where they are trapped to the fire department through mobile phones, **, etc.

    If the ** point is close to their home, the public should choose to escape immediately. If you are close to the top floor, you can immediately run to the top floor and wait for rescue.

    When escaping, choose a good escape route, do not rush out, soak towels and other items and cover your mouth and nose, and try to bend down to avoid the invasion of harmful gases. If the temperature of the door is very high, it means that the corridor has been burned or there is smoke, so you should not run out, but should choose a relatively well-sealed place such as a toilet and wait for rescue. If the temperature of the door is not high, it means that there is no fire in the surrounding area and you can escape smoothly.

    In addition, when opening the door, the public should first open a gap and make sure that there is no smoke outside, so as to avoid the smoke pouring in and knocking people down when the door is opened. If you are trapped at night, you can shake a flashlight or brightly colored clothes and shout loudly.

    Escape precautions:

    1. Don't take care of personal property and delay time, so as not to lose a lot of money and bury your life in the fire for a little money, which is not worth it.

    2. If there are elderly, children and disabled people at home, do not run blindly, you should quickly move them to a safe place, and then ask for help from capable neighbors.

    3. In high-rise buildings, there are indoor fire hydrants and fixed fire extinguishing facilities equipped according to the regulations, and the fire hydrants should be opened as much as possible when the fire expands, so that the water can flow out, which can also delay the spread of the fire.

    1. Once a fire breaks out in a high-rise building, don't jump off the building in a hurry. If there is an evacuation floor, you can enter the evacuation floor first. If the blind branch on the floor is already on fire, the staircase has not been sealed, and the fire is not very violent, you can quickly rush down the stairs from the upper floor or enter the evacuation staircase and evacuate to safety.

    When escaping from the fire, the person with the child should carry the child away, not the child. Cover your mouth with a wet towel when fleeing to reduce the risk of smoke.

    2. If the staircase has been sealed or the fire has been quite fierce, leave the dangerous room and take refuge in the balcony, toilet, bathroom and other places far away from the fire. When leaving the room, you should close the doors and windows behind you in time, which can delay the pursuit of the fire and win more time to escape.

    3. If your life is seriously threatened and there is no other way to save yourself, you can use ropes or clothes, orange belts, bed sheets, curtains, quilts, etc. to tear them into strips and connect them as lifesaving ropes. You can also use the downpipes and lightning rods on the outer wall of the building to descend to the ground or under the fire layer layer by layer to escape. The above methods are not suitable for the young, elderly, sick or people with limited mobility.

    4. If the people living on the second floor have no way to save themselves and the time is very urgent, and the threat of fireworks is serious, and they are forced to jump off the building, they can first throw quilts and other objects to the ground, and then use both hands to climb the windowsill and slide down to reduce the height of the jump, and try to land with both feet first to reduce the degree of injury. It must be pointed out that according to the data, people who jump from a height of more than 10 meters have very little hope of survival. Therefore, do not jump off a building in case of fire.

    The correct way to escape is as follows:

    1. The direction of the headwind. Because the direction of the wind is often the direction of fire spread and smoke spread.

    2. If it is an actual question rather than an exam question, when the fire is not big and the smoke is not thick, you can get wet and cover your mouth and nose with a soaked towel and lean down to escape. However, if you are unable to escape downward, you can go up to the evacuation floor or in the room to take appropriate measures.

    3. If there is no refuge floor, enter the room, don't blindly feel safe, the reason why you don't want to escape is not that the house is easy to be burned down as the recommended answer says, but because there are more people who are smoked to death by smoke compared to the flames, and the smoke will rise rapidly at a speed of 30 meters and seconds after a fire, so the flavor will not be burned by the fire, but it must be smoked by the smoke and unable to escape.

    Fire Escape Methods:

    1. When escaping, you can cover your mouth and nose with a wet towel to prevent suffocation caused by inhaling smoke. Wrap your body in wet clothes, sheets, etc., when walking through areas of thick smoke, and walk as close to the ground as possible.

    2. When you find that there is a fire on your body, do not run, you should roll on the spot or use clothes to extinguish the flames. When there is no way to escape, take shelter in the bathroom and plug the door with a wet towel.

    3. In the event of a fire, you can call out loudly in the window, balcony and other places, or knock on metal objects, throw soft objects, etc., and wave a flashlight or white cloth strip at night to attract the attention of rescuers.

Danger and severity are actually the same thing. It's burning down there, and you're done upstairs. The elevator cannot be sitted. Because there is a fire, there will be a power outage. If you are trapped in an elevator at this time, you will definitely die. Run the stairs and you'll have to escape before the smoke fills the hallway. >>>More
