Traditional theme parks are greatly
influenced by the weather because of their operation time and
tourists'experience. Many owners have sought after indoor water park planning to
improve visitors'sense of experience and manageable operating time.
Nowadays, shopping mall is a child-centered
family shopping mode. Indoor family entertainment center has strong radiation and
the ability to guide customers to repeat shopping. While shopping malls in the
early implementation of fire control approval procedures, often home
entertainment centers and other shops are not stationed, so the exact business
scope of the site can not be determined.
For the setting of indoor family
entertainment center, it also needs to meet the corresponding planning
requirements.
1. It should
be located on the first to third floors of the shopping mall. It is strictly
forbidden to be located in the underground shopping mall or on floors above
four floors.
2. There
should be no fewer than two safe exits for indoor children's park. There should
be an independent entrance and exit. When the shopping mall is a high-rise
building, an independent entrance and exit must be set up.
3. When a fire
breaks out, a large amount of toxic smoke produced by combustible materials is
the main cause of suffocation death. Therefore, all kinds of materials used in
facilities must be non-flammable, non-flammable materials or after
flame-retardant treatment of flammable materials.
4. Fully equipped with fire fighting
equipment, including fire extinguishers, fire emergency lighting and evacuation
signs.
Water-playing area is the main recreational
area of indoor amusement park, which usually includes wave-making pool,
drifting river, water slide, slideway and other water-wading recreational
facilities. These recreational facilities or occupy a large area or their own
height, so the water play area is generally set in a tall space, the height is
generally about 20 meters, the area is less than 10,000 square meters, more
than tens of thousands of square meters. Usually, the tall space where the
water play area is located is set up as a fire protection zone, which is much
larger than the fire protection zone of the general building. The danger lies
in the rapid convection of air and the rapid spread of smoke in fire.
On the other hand, the tall building space
structure also provides a larger smoke storage space, which makes the fire
smoke subsidence slower. If the main activity area of amusement personnel is in
a lower position in the space, the fire smoke threat to human life and safety
is relatively small. In addition, because the area is mostly wave-making ponds,
drifting rivers and other waters, there are certain fire protection isolation
conditions. Although the fire smoke will spread, but the fire will not spread
quickly to form a large area of fire.
Fire load is high
The main fire load of indoor water park
comes from recreational facilities. The main structure of recreation facilities
is mostly steel structure, and the main combustible material is FRP slideway on
recreation facilities. Although FRP is a non-flammable material, the
possibility of its ignition is not excluded. FRP combustion will release a
large number of toxic and harmful gases to human body. If it can not be
eliminated in time and gathered indoors, it will pose a threat to the life
safety of indoor recreation personnel in space.High personnel density and
complex evacuation path
Indoor water park is very dense during the
holidays, and evacuation pressure will be great in emergency. In addition, the
level of amusement facilities in the water park is scattered, and there will
inevitably be steps on the evacuation corridor. Emergency evacuation may cause
secondary disasters such as falls and tramples. Some recreational facilities
are relatively high. In emergencies, people need to evacuate from recreational
facilities tens of meters high to the ground, or wait for recreational
facilities to be reset before starting evacuation. The evacuation path is
complex and takes a long time.
Electrical fire is dangerous
A large number of motors are used in
recreational facilities such as wave-making pools. When the motors are
overloaded and under-voltage operation, insulation damage, poor contact,
mechanical friction and other conditions, sparks, arcs or the insulation of the
surrounding wires will be damaged, resulting in leakage, short circuit and
other phenomena, which will trigger fires. Of course, the fire protection
design of indoor water park is also very difficult, because the fire protection
zones of indoor water park are too large, and its water play zones are usually
equipped with a large number of large-scale recreational equipment, with high
space, so it is not suitable to use firewalls or fire curtains and other fire
prevention measures to separate them, usually as a fire protection zoning
design. However, the building area of fire protection zones is limited by the
fire protection technical standards of construction projects in China. If the
tall space of the water play area is simply designed as a fire protection
zoning, the building area of fire protection zones will probably exceed the
requirements of the fire protection technical standards.
In addition, the large-scale indoor water
park, like the indoor land park, has a long evacuation distance, which is also
one of the difficulties encountered in the design. The tall space buildings of
the water park generally have a large plane size and a long entrance depth,
which often leads to the evacuation distance in some areas of the water park
exceeding the standard requirements of fire protection technology.
In recent years, with the continuous
improvement of domestic consumption level, people's pursuit of consumer demand
and consumption mode is more diversified and diversified. More and more theme
parks, water parks, commercial entertainment complexes, resorts and so on
appear around us. In recent 20 years, the scale and investment of domestic
recreational products have reached the top level. According to the forecast of
the World Tourism Organization, China will become the world's largest tourist
destination in 2020.
So, it has always been a very dense indoor
theme amusement space, and its fire protection design must be a particularly
important part of the overall design process.
