嘉禾大廈 10/8/2008

大火現場為旺角彌敦道687至689號樓高15層的嘉禾大廈，閣樓的新華夜總會首先起火，當局經初步調查後認為起火原因無可疑，但因為起火單位沒有安裝防煙門，令火警後整幢大廈陷入煙海中，造成傷亡慘重

消防工程師學會理事梁錦得表示，根據現時消防條例，嘉禾大廈這類商住樓宇需要加裝自動灑水系統及防煙門。如大廈無防煙門或沒把門關好，一旦發生火警，會形成煙囱效應，熱力與濃煙經梯間不斷擴散至各樓層，令住戶逃生時更危險。

University of Southampton. The fire destroyed the

Mountbatten Building (Building 53), which included some

laboratories and offices used by the Optoelectronics

Research Centre (ORC). The ORC was split between two

buildings, and the headquarters in the Physics Building

(Building 46) were not directly affected.

宿舍被大火燒清光，床架也燒到變形

有學生批評宿舍內不但沒有自動噴灑等消防設施，連滅火筒也沒有。有學生指出，因宿舍晚上10

點半停電，疑因該宿舍有人前晚使用電熱棒時，沒有拔掉電掣，到昨日上午6時恢復供電後，導致發生火警。另有消息稱，火警疑因使用熱水壺

不當引起。

1. Immediately leave his/her

place of work and

encourage others to

evacuate.

2. Check rooms within

previously agreed area to

ensure all people have

left.*

* If some people are

unwilling to leave – do not

delay but continue to

search other rooms.

114

3. 驅動及指領各人往適當出路。

4. 記下未巡查的地方以便通知消防員。

5. 鼓催各人盡速下樓。


requested to:


3. Spur on people to leave

their place of work and to

direct them to appropriate

exit.

4. Note which rooms or areas

were not checked due to

smoke/fires and to inform

fire brigade upon its arrival

without delay.

5. Encourage people to move

quickly down stairwell and

out of building.

115

6. 帶領及驅使人群往集合地點。

7. 即時向消防隊長報告問題 -- 例如：有人被困，有人未疏散。


requested to:


6. Move people away from building exits to the assembly point.

7. Report any problems (missing persons, non-evacuated staff etc.) to the Fire Officer of the Fire Brigade in charge of the operation directly and without delay.

116

8. 安排房間門匙，以便消防員開啟檢查。

9. 每一火警糾察最多只能負責一層樓面，如有其它樓層，應另外指派其它人。


requested to:


8. Identify key holders should the fire brigade wish to enter locked rooms.

9. A fire warden should under no circumstances be responsible for more than one floor. Appoint sufficient fire wardens for additional floors.

117

Action Plan

執行重點

118

1. Bring fire safety issues to the attention of your supervisor/ Dept Head or Safety Office.

2. Identify the other fire wardens/safety representatives on your floor.

3. Identify who checks common areas or rooms belonging to departments located elsewhere on campus.

It will be of benefit for fire wardens to

consider the following points before the

next real event or fire drill:

火警糾察可以參考下列各項去擬定火警安全計劃:

1. 向部門主管或安全事務處提出有關防火安全事項。

2. 與樓層的其它火警糾察及安全代表經常保持聯絡以便溝通。

3. 確定火警時有人巡查樓層的共用地方。

119

4. 指派其它同事作副手分擔各事項。

5. 定期確保火警安全資料(Fire action,Fire

evacuation plans, Fire assembly points, Guidelines to avoid false alarm or fire, Evacuation with a disability or pregnancy.All these information * can be downloaded from the website of Safety Office)

準確及每年將資料傳閱二次。

4. Identify likely people who

would be willing to act as

deputies or assistants in

fire warden activities.

5. Ensure that all persons

on your floor are kept

updated of the actions to

be taken in the event of a

fire by circulating the fire

safety information* to

them at least twice yearly.

120

6. 通知新上工或剛轉職的同事有關火警安全資料。

7. 若你負責地區的員工不用外出工作並計劃集合後進行點名，就要準備名單備用。

8a. 如有行動不便人仕，應早作準備。評估一下他/她是否有能力沿樓梯疏散。

6. Inform the new comers to

your Dept./Unit, the

“Action in Case of Fire and

Evacuation Procedures” of

the University.

7. If the population in your

responsible area is

generally static ( e.g. need

not work outside ) and a

roll call is practicable at

the assembly point,

prepare a list for use.

8a. Identify any needs for

special arrangements for

persons who may require

particular attention in the

event of a fire.

121

8b. 樓梯口是經安全設計，可用作短暫逗留。行動不便人仕可以在樓梯口等候消防員救援。如果採取這安排，就定要確保行動不便人仕已事前獲通知緊急聯絡電話(主校園為39172882) ，或已指派特定人仕在第一時間通知消防隊長。

8b. If there are physically handicapped persons in your area, evaluate beforehand whether the handicapped persons can negotiate the escape route without undue risk. If they cannot, staircase landings offer well protected emergency refuges where physically handicapped persons can wait for the assistance of the fireman. When such arrangement is in force, make sure that the physically handicapped persons have been informed the emergency telephone number ( 39172882 for the Main Campus ) or another person informs the fire brigade upon its arrival.

122

Emergency refuge point is located at the

staircase landing behind the smoke lobby
