Exit Sign Requirement in Industrial or Commercial Places
The layout design of emergency exit or fire exit signs are not fixed for all country, it’s may vary country to country, even in the same country it’s vary time to time. Today we will introduce some most used format of exit signs that you see everywhere.
In older version it was only
wording, now using just pictograph and arrow, the wording is an optional. This
is now an international format.
Exit Sign Symbol
You can define
as- an exit sign is devices that denote the location of the closest emergency
exit in case of fire or other emergency for in a public facility such like a building, aircraft or boat
etc.
This version is in addition with
the word format a running man pictogram and was an interim move towards the full pictogram sign.
The meaning of this sign is very clear.
This version is full
pictogram only. A running man towards the exit from the existing building. This
is still acceptable to use on existing sites.
This version of exit sign is
more descriptive than others. This is
actually some combination of older and newer version. The descriptive text is an optional element of the sign and is not always required.
The format or version of exit
signs is not important much more, it is important that you placed the sign in right
place. So, let a check and make snack list-
is your exit signs are working or not.

ReplyDeleteIt is often a serious offence as a building owner or landlord to not comply with the fire/building code in terms of Exit signage. In July 2016, for example, a fire in a Toronto apartment caused the death of one person and injured many others. An investigation found that Emergency and Exit lights were not properly illuminated, and the landlord was fined about $20,000 for "not properly illuminating exit signs, and having no record of emergency lighting tests and another $50,000 for other infractions to the code.
