In a fire there are many environmental factors that can influence the behavior of occupants within the space. This reaction will determine whether the other occupants will be in danger or whether their choice will endanger other people. How an occupant is alerted to the presence of a fire can determine the degree of threat perceived. Once the threat is perceived, a course of action will be decided and implemented. In many studies a key element remains a constant in observing behavior through a fire modeling program. Programs are used to predict occupant foot traffic but will never be able to determine the actual decision and the various obstacles that may develop during the event. It allows the fire protection designer to consider which building features need to be updated to allow for better traffic flow. There is only so much information that can be input and manipulated to achieve a realistic result. To expand the predictive theory of human behavior in fires, it is necessary to identify the factors that will influence a person to take certain actions. Examples of actions taken during an evacuation include seeking information, relaying information to others, and preparing to evacuate. It is through audio and live signals that the best result was observed. Before individuals perform an action, they perceive certain signals, interpret the risk of the situation based on those signals, and then make a decision about what to do based on these interpretations. There are also some factors that influence each step of the process. These factors influence whether or not the individual perceives the signal, influence the type of interpretation the individual forms about the situation and the risk based on that cu... middle of paper... sure. Alternative plans and approaches should be discussed with both middle and senior management to ensure understanding and cooperation. Behavior during the evacuation of a building fire is understood as a logical attempt to cope and cope with a complex situation. We can see change in behavior as the result of a behavioral process. Each behavioral aspect will begin with a new signal and information from the social and physical environment. The signals must be recognized, interpreted, and then a decision is made about what action is necessary to preserve life. The process that a person will undergo will be repeated several times, for example in a model to see what the best result is. By identifying the above factors, it can help influence each stage of the behavioral process, predict certain possibilities, and help form a behavioral model for evacuating a fire in a building..
