Standard for Installation of Fire Safety Devices based on Use and Occupancy Article 188

The smoke exhaust equipment set forth in Article 28, Paragraph 1 Subparagraph 1 to 4 shall be installed pursuant to the following:1.A draft-curtained compartment shall be constructed for every 500-m2 section of each floor. This requirement shall not apply to the venues accommodating audiences in theaters, cinemas, music halls, assembly halls, and factory buildings or similar constructions, where ceiling height is over 5 meters high, and ceiling and interior walls are constructed using Class 1 flame-resistant materials.2.A draft-curtained compartment shall be constructed for every 300-m2 section of an underground building passageway.3.Where the horizontal distance from any position in the compartment specified in the preceding two Subparagraphs (hereafter referred as smoke compartments) to the smoke exhaust vent is less than 30 meters, and the vent is located on the ceiling or within an 80-cm area under the ceiling, except where the vent directly leads outdoors, said vent shall be connected to a smoke exhaust duct. Where the vent is positioned under the ceiling and the depth of the draft curtain is under 80 cm, the vent shall be installed within the depth of the overhanging draft curtain.4.The smoke exhaust vents, ducts, and other parts connected to the smoke exhaust equipment exposing to smoke shall be constructed using non-combustible material.5.Where the smoke exhaust ducts cut across a fire compartment, a fire damper shall be installed on the intersection. The construction of the intersection juncture where the duct crosses the fire compartment shall be fire resistance rated as that of the fire compartment. Where duct passes through other floor levels, the vertical duct shall be installed at the fire compartmented shaft. Where the exhaust duct has fire resistance performance, reviewed and approved by the central regulating authority, and the construction of the intersection juncture where the duct crosses the fire compartment is fire resistance rated as that of the fire compartment, the foregoing requirement shall not apply.6.The smoke exhaust vents shall be equipped with manual stations and detector activated automatic operating devices, and be kept closed under normal circumstances, unless being activated through the aforesaid stations and devices, or the remote operating devices. The construction of the vent blades shall allow the vents remain open and unaffected by the surge of smoke current after the vents are opened. The manual station shall be installed on a wall around 80 cm to 150 cm from the floor. Where the station is located on the ceiling, an overhanging chain or a vertical handle shall be attached to the station, and be located at a height of 180 cm from the floor. Easy-to-follow operating instructions shall be posted near the station.7.The vents shall have opening area measuring at least 2% of the area of the smoke compartment, and allow smoke to be naturally and directly exhausted outdoors. Where a lack of such natural and direct exhaust capacity exists, a smoke exhaust fan shall be installed.8.The smoke exhaust fan shall be automatically activated upon the opening of any one of exhaust vents. The fan shall have a capacity of 120 m3/min. Where there is one smoke compartment, the capacity shall be at least 1 m3/min per square meter of the compartment area; where there are two or more smoke compartments, the capacity shall be at least 2 m3/min per square meter, based on the area of the largest compartment. Where the fan is located in an underground passageway of an underground building, total smoke exhaust capacity shall be at least 600 m3/min.9.The capacity of the emergency power source shall be capable of operating the equipment effectively for a period of at least 30 minutes.10.The smoke exhaust vents that directly face outdoors and are kept open at all times, shall not apply to the restrictions set forth in Subparagraphs 6 and 9.11.When the smoke vent is actived, the air conditioning and ventilation equipment should be stopped.The term “draft curtain” stated in the foregoing Subparagraphs refers to the overhanging wall made of incombustible materials and constructed downward from the ceiling measuring at least 50 cm, or a structure having equivalent or better capacity of restricting the movement of smoke. Where such is located in an underground passageway of an underground building, the draft curtain shall measure at least 80 cm from the ceiling

第二十八條第一項第一款至第四款排煙設備,依下列規定設置:
一、每層樓地板面積每五百平方公尺內,以防煙壁區劃。
但戲院、電影院、歌廳、集會堂等場所觀眾席,及工廠等類似建築物,其天花板高度在五公尺以上,且天花板及室內牆面以耐燃一級材料裝修者,不在此限。
二、地下建築物之地下通道每三百平方公尺應以防煙壁區劃。
三、依第一款、第二款區劃(以下稱為防煙區劃)之範圍內,任一位置至排煙口之水平距離在三十公尺以下,排煙口設於天花板或其下方八十公分範圍內,除直接面向戶外,應與排煙風管連接。
但排煙口設在天花板下方,防煙壁下垂高度未達八十公分時,排煙口應設在該防煙壁之下垂高度內。
四、排煙設備之排煙口、風管及其他與煙接觸部分應使用不燃材料。
五、排煙風管貫穿防火區劃時,應在貫穿處設防火閘門;該風管與貫穿部位合成之構造應具所貫穿構造之防火時效;其跨樓層設置時,立管應置於防火區劃之管道間。
但設置之風管具防火性能並經中央主管機關審核認可,該風管與貫穿部位合成之構造具所貫穿構造之防火時效者,不在此限。
六、排煙口設手動開關裝置及探測器連動自動開關裝置;以該等裝置或遠隔操作開關裝置開啟,平時保持關閉狀態,開口葉片之構造應不受開啟時所生氣流之影響而關閉。
手動開關裝置用手操作部分應設於距離樓地板面八十公分以上一百五十公分以下之牆面,裝置於天花板時,應設操作垂鍊或垂桿在距離樓地板一百八十公分之位置,並標示簡易之操作方式。
七、排煙口之開口面積在防煙區劃面積之百分之二以上,且以自然方式直接排至戶外。
排煙口無法以自然方式直接排至戶外時,應設排煙機。
八、排煙機應隨任一排煙口之開啟而動作。
排煙機之排煙量在每分鐘一百二十立方公尺以上;且在一防煙區劃時,在該防煙區劃面積每平方公尺每分鐘一立方公尺以上;在二區以上之防煙區劃時,在最大防煙區劃面積每平方公尺每分鐘二立方公尺以上。
但地下建築物之地下通道,其總排煙量應在每分鐘六百立方公尺以上。
九、連接緊急電源,其供電容量應供其有效動作三十分鐘以上。
十、排煙口直接面向戶外且常時開啟者,得不受第六款及前款之限制。
十一、排煙口開啟時應連動停止空氣調節及通風設備運轉。
前項之防煙壁,指以不燃材料建造,自天花板下垂五十公分以上之垂壁或具有同等以上阻止煙流動構造者。
但地下建築物之地下通道,防煙壁應自天花板下垂八十公分以上。
