The risk of firefighting and the safe movement of firefighters will increase with the complexity of floor layouts and large compartments and insufficient floor numbering system. It will be made even worse by the automatic or manual operation of fire engineering systems such as fire curtains. Additionally, the weather enclosure of tall buildings that can transfer heat and flame between high rise compartment through exterior façade really imposes a higher challenge in fire-fighting in all tall buildings.
Agree Maya, confusion around levels versus floors and contradicting signage makes what should be a simple task complex. Another concern which is not easily addressed is falling debris putting members of the public, firefighters, appliances and hoselines at risk.
