消防安全

Residential buildings built before 1968 are generally classified either as "fireproof" or "non-fireproof." Residential buildings built in or after 1968 are generally classified either as "combustible" or "non-combustible.“建筑物的结构类型一般取决于建筑物的大小和高度.

A "non-combustible" or "fireproof" building is a building whose structural components are constructed of materials that do not burn or are resistant to fire and therefore will not contribute to the spread of the fire. 在这样的建筑里, fires are more likely to be contained in the room, 他们开始的套房或空间，不太可能在其他房间的建筑墙壁内传播, 套房和楼层. 这并不意味着该建筑不受火灾的影响. 而建筑物的结构部件可能不会着火, 建筑物内的所有物品(包括家具), 地毯, 木地板, 装饰品和个人物品)可能会着火并产生火焰, 热 and large amounts of smoke, which can travel throughout the building, 尤其是房间, suites or stairwell doors are left open.

A "combustible" or "non-fireproof" building has structural components that will burn if exposed to fire and can contribute to the spread of the fire. 在这样的建筑物中，火灾可以在建筑物的墙壁内蔓延到其他房间和楼层. 建筑物内燃烧的物质也会产生致命的火焰、热量和烟雾.

所有住宅楼都至少有一个出口(出楼的方式)。, and most have at least two. There are several different types of egress:

• 室内楼梯所有的建筑物都有通往街道的楼梯. These stairs may be unenclosed or enclosed. Unenclosed 楼梯间 (stairs that are not separated from the hallways by walls and doors) do not prevent the spread of flame, 热和烟. 因为火焰, 热和烟 generally rise, 在较低楼层发生火灾时，未封闭的楼梯间可能无法确保安全出口. 封闭的楼梯更有可能允许安全离开大楼, if the doors are kept closed. 熟悉建筑物的出口是很重要的.
• 外部楼梯: Some buildings provide access to the living spaces by means of stairs and corridors that are outdoors. The fact that they are out doors and do not trap 热和烟 enhance their safety in the event of a fire provided that they are not obstructed.
• 消防塔楼梯: These are generally enclosed 楼梯间 in a "tower" separated from the building by air shafts open to the outside. 露天通风井允许热量和烟雾从建筑中逸出.
• 防火梯许多老旧的建筑物在建筑物的外面都设有防火通道, which is accessed through a window or balcony. 消防通道被认为是次要或替代的出口方式. They are to be used if the primary means of egress (楼梯间) cannot be safely used to exit the building because they are obstructed by flame, 热, 或烟.
• 出口: Most buildings have more than one exit. In addition to the main entrance to the building, there may be separate side exits, 后退出, 地下室出口, 屋顶出口和楼梯间通往街道的出口. Some of these exits may have alarms. Not all of these exits may lead to the street. 屋顶出口可能允许也可能不允许进入相邻的建筑物.
• 一定要熟悉大楼的不同出口方式.

A fire sprinkler system is a system of pipes and sprinkler heads that when triggered by the 热 of a fire automatically discharges water that extinguishes the fire. 自动喷水灭火系统将继续喷水，直到关闭为止. 当自动喷水灭火系统启动时，就会发出警报.

Sprinkler systems are very effective at preventing fire from spreading beyond the room in which it starts. 然而，火灾仍然可能产生烟雾，烟雾可以在整个建筑物中传播.

住宅建筑一般不需要有消防喷淋系统. 一些住宅楼装有喷水灭火系统, but only in compactor chutes, specific rooms or boiler rooms. All apartment buildings constructed or substantially renovated after March 1999 will be required by law to be equipped with fire sprinkler systems throughout the building.

Some residential buildings are equipped with interi或火灾 alarm systems that are designed to warn building occupants of a fire in the building. 室内火灾报警系统通常由位于大厅或地下室的面板组成, 在主入口附近和每个楼梯间门旁边设有手动拉站. Interi或火灾 alarm systems are usually manually activated and do not automatically transmit a signal to the Fire Department, 所以还是要打电话给911或者消防调度员. Do not assume that the Fire Department has been notified because you hear a fire alarm 或烟 detector sounding in the building. 外围十大菠菜app宿舍通过中央车站向消防局发出信号.

• Smoking is prohibited; this applies in all college-owned or operated student residences and all academic and administrative buildings. 校园范围内不允许在室外吸烟. For those who go outside the perimeter to smoke, we ask that you maintain a minimum distance of 25 feet from any Barnard building and remain mindful of your proximity to building windows and to those passing by. 违反此政策的学生将被追究责任, and the minimum sanction for this violation includes (but is not limited to) a meeting with your Associate Director (or designee), 并附上警告信或教育处分. 不小心处理或丢弃的香烟是导致火灾死亡的主要原因. 如果你在校园以外的地方吸烟，一定要做到:
  • Never smoke in bed or when you are drowsy. 在沙发或其他“填充”家具上吸烟时要特别小心.
  • 把烟灰缸里的香烟全部熄灭，烟灰缸要深，不能翻倒.
  • 不要在家具上留下点燃的或冒烟的香烟.
• 每个学生的房间都配备了至少一个烟雾探测器. 定期检查，按下测试按钮，确保工作正常. 每当烟雾探测器发出啁啾信号，表示电池电量不足或发生故障时, 通知设施服务部更换电池或维修烟雾探测器.
• 煮熟的食物，无论是放在炉子上、烤箱里或微波炉里，都不要无人看管. Keep stove tops clean and free of flammable items. 睡觉前定期检查厨房，确保烤箱关闭.
• Never overload electrical outlets. 更换任何破裂或磨损的电线. Never run extension cords under rugs. Use only UL-listed power strips.
• 保持通往消防通道的所有门道和窗户不受任何形式的阻碍. 如发现走廊上有障碍物或垃圾堆积，请及时报告, 楼梯间, 请立即致电212-854-2041向设施服务处查询火警通道或其他出口.
• 熟悉你居住区域内所有门窗的操作. 如果你有一个，检查窗户闸门是否运行顺畅. Report any window gates that do not open immediately by notifying your RA and submitting a Facilities work order online.
• 熟悉楼梯井、消防通道和所有其他出口的位置. 另外，一定要知道火灾报警拉箱的位置.
• 准备一条紧急逃生路线，以便在建筑物发生火灾时使用. Include your room or suitemate and choose a meeting place a safe distance from your building where you should all meet in case you get separated during a fire evacuation. 火警响起时，你们必须撤离大楼, 除非它被明确告知是对火灾报警系统的测试.
• 严禁使用新鲜的装饰性绿色植物，如圣诞树和节日花环. 有关节日装饰的更多信息，请参阅本手册第21页.
• 切勿乱动灭火器、烟雾探测器或任何其他类型的生命安全设备.

• Never leave cooking food unattended!
• 把把手转到炉子的中心，以防止意外溢出
• 永远不要在油脂火上用水，用锅盖盖住锅盖
• 永远不要试图拿走或携带着火的平底锅
• Use fireproof potholders, not a towel
• 避免油脂积聚和清理溢出，它们很容易引起火灾
• Keep paper products away from the stove
• 知道最近的灭火器在哪里以及如何使用

如果发生火灾，请遵循消防部门和社区安全人员的指示. 如果现场没有急救人员，出现紧急情况, you may be required to decide on a course of action to protect yourself and the other members of your room or suite.

This 消防安全 Plan is intended to assist you in selecting the safest course of action in such an emergency. 没有一个消防安全计划能够考虑到所有可能的因素和不断变化的情况, 因此，在这种情况下，你可能必须决定最安全的行动方案.

宿舍和校园建筑的疏散点清单

• 保持冷静. 不要惊慌. 尽快通知社区安全(212-854-6666). 紧急救援人员会在接到警报的几分钟内赶到火灾现场.
• 了解最近的火警拉箱的位置.
• 火焰, 热量和烟雾上升, generally a fire on a 地板上 below your room or suite presents a greater threat to your safety than a fire on a 地板上 above you.
• 不要高估你灭火的能力. 大多数火灾不容易或不安全扑灭. 一旦火势开始迅速蔓延，不要试图将其扑灭. 如果你试图扑灭火灾，确保你有一个清晰的路径从房间撤退.
• Exit the building using stairs only and NEVER use the elevator because it could stop between 地板上s or take you to where the fire is. 当你离开每个空间时，要关上门，以限制火势.
• 燃烧材料释放的热量、烟雾和气体会很快使你窒息. 如果你身在浓烟中，爬到地板上. Take short breaths through your nose.
• 如果你的衣服着火了，不要跑——停下来，放下，滚起来. 停在原地, 倒在地上, cover your faced with your hands to protect your face and lungs and roll over as many times as necessary to smother the flames.

• 摸摸你的房间或套房的门和门把手是否有暖气. 如果不热，轻轻打开门，检查走廊是否有烟、热或火.
• 如果可以安全的话，从离你最近的出口离开你的房间、套房和大楼.
• 关闭但不要锁住房间和套房的门，然后离开该区域. 如果火灾发生在邻近区域，在安全的情况下，也要关闭该区域的门.
• 如果地点方便，出门的时候带上钥匙和鞋子(如果合适的话，还有外套).
• As you head for the closest exit, 当你经过别人的时候，大声喊叫让他们撤离，并用力敲门. 你不想呆在空间里等别人, 但是你出去的时候一定要尽量通知别人.
• NEVER use the elevator to evacuate. 电梯和电梯井可能着火, the elevator may stop operating, 或者电梯会带你到火灾地点.
• 如果走廊或楼梯间因烟雾而不安全, 热, 或火灾, and you have access to a fire escape; use it to exit the building. Proceed cautiously on the fire escape.
• If you cannot use the stairs 或火灾 escape, 打电话给社区安全部门，告诉他们你的位置，包括大楼, 地板上, 房间或套房的号码和您的人数. 关闭 the door to the room you are in and place a wet towel under the door to prevent smoke from getting into the room.
• 如果房间或套房的情况危及生命, 打开窗户，挥动毛巾或床单以吸引急救人员的注意.
• 在大楼外的预定地点与房间或套房的成员见面. 如果有人下落不明，通知消防队员(或适当的学院工作人员).

宿舍和校园建筑的疏散点清单

Before you begin to extinguish a small fire be sure the building's fire alarm has been activated and help is on the way. 火势应控制在一个小范围内，没有蔓延到附近空间以外的危险. 此外，它不应该对你的安全构成危险.

Remember the 30 second rule: If you can't extinguish the fire within 30 seconds or with one fire extinguisher... 离开!!
