With so much madness and confusion in the minds of today's generation there is a high chance that somewhere, some guy just looses his mind. He decides to have his vengeance ! He stops what he is doing. Reaches for the match box and lights up a book. He starts burning the place down. Soon there is fire all over the place. This could happen at your workplace today.
To minimise the damage as much as possible during such extreme situations we have fire safety measures used in modern infrastructures. Modern Infrastructures consist of multiple storied buildings. Equipped with electrical connection and in few cases cooking gas for all floors. These apartments have a lot of household furniture which is always at a risk of catching fire. This fire can spread and cause damage to human life, hence it is mandatory to have proper fire safety measures. Fires can start on their own due to short circuits, gas leaks, over-heating of electrical equipment, etc.
Smoke detectors must be placed on all the ceilings so that an alarm is sound as soon as the fire begins. Alarm bells must be in place in such a way that in case of an emergency the sound reaches every corner of the building. Fire extinguishers and water hose must be placed on every floor. The number of fire extinguishers and water hose must be according to the size of the floor. In case of fire one must avoid using the elevators. The bigger the area of the floor, the more staircases the building mist have. There must be arrows and markings directing the exit procedure placed appropriately on the walls and doors. Water sprinklers must be fixed on the ceiling, which get activated automatically in case of a fire.
All these equipments must undergo a regular maintenance to ensure proper functionality when needed. Lets hope there are no fires in our homes.
