Abstract
In fire safety engineering terms it is necessary to ensure that available safe escape time (ASET) is greater than required safe escape time (RSET) by an acceptable margin of safety. ASET depends upon the time–concentration curves for smoke, irritant and asphxyiant gases and heat and the effects of their concentrations or accumulating doses on occupant escape capability, and in particular time to incapacitation. Smoke and irritant gases also influence RSET, by affecting behaviour and movement speeds of escaping occupants.
