Description The problem of emergency evacuation of public buildings, intended to accommodate large numbers of people is critical. Modern technologies such as the use of numerical simulations, virtual and augmented reality, Agent Based models represent an opportunity to study behaviors that are difficult to reproduce in real life (e.g. explosions and fires emergencies). This may allow to improve new and existing structures with respect to such risks and therefore to improve the resilience of modern communities.
In this paper, the problem of emergency fire evacuation for an existing school in the hinterland of Milan is studied. A virtual simulation environment will be prepared starting from the BIM model and then moving on to a platform for virtual reality. In this way it will be possible to create realistic emergency scenarios by verifying the response and evacuation times of users. The verification of the infrastructure response and the subsequent modification for a better emergency response represent the expected results of the research.
