One of the challenges is to implement helpfull technologies during evacuations from buildings – lifts. The aim of the work was to find the ideals of the design of the necessary type and number of lifts. The numerical calculation method was used using simulation software. A model of a fifteen-storey building with multiple versions of the lifts was created. The results showed what type and number of lifts brought the desired shortening of the evacuation time. Conclusion is the recommendation of an ideal lift design.
