Abstract
Many codes and standards regarding fire safety are designed and established based on healthy adults in general. Human represent many different properties in various aspects depending upon age. The study tried to identify the relation between age and evacuation depending on visibility. Correlation analysis and linear regression analysis were conducted to identify the correlation between the subject's age and evacuation speed. As the visual impairment became stronger, the correlation between age and speed became smaller.
