Summary
The current fire systems installed in our theaters are very beneficial and they do the job that
they are expected to do. The only problem is that the reaction of the occupants ensues chaos
for all others. To mitigate this problem, I have come up with a few design changes that would
create a cooler environment in the heat of danger. Quieter fire alarms, easier paths of egress,
and zoned sprinkler systems will allow us to provide a safer theater for your occupants.Quieter
fire alarms that are equipped with voice automated instructions would greatly benefit people’s
reaction of panic. Easier paths of egress would allow the occupants to exit quicker and safer.
Lastly, zoned sprinkler systems would allow the necessary areas to receive the help that it
needs.
Conclusion
With these three changes implemented into our Regal theaters, we have gained the upper hand
in safety against all other cinemas. When you have a safety plan that you know and trust, you
gain confidence in the future of your business. These simple changes, updated fire alarms,
easier paths of egress, and zoned sprinkler systems can do just that. A successful approach to
hazards in our cinemas will allow our company to continue for many generations to come.
Providing many more lives with the art of theater.
Recommendations
The easier way to implement these ideas is in the design phases of new theaters being
constructed. The design will be able to go in and draw everything so that it fits perfectly into
the building. Changing existing theaters will be the biggest challenge. It would require for
locations to be shut down, or at least parts of the building, for the demolition and construction
that would be required.
