Evacuation alarm in case of fire
There are smoke detectors in corridors, public and technical areas that automatically trigger an evacuation alarm in the event of fire smoke. Alarms are indicated by a bell and flashing lights throughout the house. Try to limit the source of the fire by closing doors.
In the event of a fire, call 112 as the evacuation alarm is not directly forwarded to the Rescue Service.
Fire cells
The building is divided into a number of fire cells to prevent fire and smoke from spreading. Each fire cell is delimited by fire-rated walls and doors. In principle, all floors, stairwells, lifts, operating areas and waste rooms have their own fire cells. Doors in fire compartment boundaries can be set in the open position for transport with magnetic suspension and closed manually with a push button labeled "fire door closer". When an evacuation alarm is triggered, the doors close automatically within the alarmed area.
Doors in fire compartment boundaries must absolutely not be blocked by wedges or the like!
Escape routes/Collection point
See evacuation plans in corridors.
At least two escape routes can be reached from each workplace. The escape routes, which are marked with green luminous escape signs, must never be blocked. The green signs are always lit and have a battery backup to illuminate even in the event of a power cut.
If the fire alarm is triggered, all personnel must leave the building, close all doors behind them and gather at the assembly point outside the Nobel Forum. The staff reports there to the evacuation recipient and leaves their name and group affiliation or equivalent. No one may depart from the assembly point until this is done.
