SafetyatSea has expertise in the design of arrangements of means of escape and evacuation.

Means of Escape Planning

We can assist in the concept design and arrangement of assembly and embarkation stations as well as in dimensioning the stairways, doors and landings in line with the requirements of the Chapter 13 of the Fire Safety Systems Code.

Advanced Evacuation Analysis

SafetyatSea has developed an advanced pedestrian flow simulator (Evi) to undertake advanced evacuation analysis in accordance with IMO advanced evacuation guidelines for passengers ships.

We have undertaken advanced evacuation analysis for more than 30 ro-ro passenger ships and cruise vessels.

SafetyatSea's expertise has been utilised to assess the abandonment performance of large passenger ships, both when considering alternative design & arrangements for life safety appliances as well as when addressing casualty threshold requirements for abandonment of cruise vessels.
