Abstract | Taiwan is a narrow and long island with a dense population. Among the numerous plants established in Taiwan, a portion of operators choose to set up plants in metal buildings. However, metal buildings have poor fire-resistant abilities and cannot stop fire from spreading; thus, when a fire occurs, metal buildings often cause serious casualties and property losses. In addition, some of these metal buildings are attached buildings. When a fire burns through the compartment wall and spread across the neighboring space, the fire intensity grows even stronger and extinguishing the fire thus becomes more difficult. This type of fire can only be curbed by protection measures to prevent it from spreading. This study investigated attached metal buildings, discussed whether these buildings are unlawful, explored relevant regulations on the buildings, and proposed adjustment to the existent Fire Services Act to regulate both legal and illegal metal buildings. Emphasis should be placed on fire prevention and management systems that require business operators to take responsibility for the safety of their buildings. In addition, the government should strictly implement the punishment as regulated in Building Act for any one arbitrarily constructing or using illegal constructions. An attached metal building region for plants in Zhonghua Village, Shulin District, New Taipei City was selected as the empirical case for fire rescue simulation , which was employed to consider on-site situations and develop feasible fire prevention and rescue strategies for attached metal buildings. The results can serve as a reference for future scholars and help protect people¡¦s life and property. |
