The Evacuation Tunnel shown is especially interesting for it has been designed for easy, fast evacuation of people during an emergency. It may be used by several people at a time, and to eliminate concern about blockage, the tunnel as a spiral structure. The shortest availa- ble version is 2.60 m long and the longest has a length of 93 m. This means that if there is an emergency at a place 30 mt. high, some 8 to 10 people can be evacuated in just 2 minutes. Sliding speed insi- de the tunnel is a maximum 2.10 m per second. A conventional lift can evacuate people at 5 m per second. The structure of this tunnel also allows for the safe evacuation of children, disabled people and the elderly because sliding is effortless and does not produce an unpleasant sense of falling.
