台灣在歷年來火災發生的事件中,以住宅型火災發生的比率最高,當中有很多是木構造建築,然而這些都是早期所興建的老舊木構造建築物(大多為國防部眷村),儘管在近年來台灣之經濟發展已十分迅速,但目前於各鄉鎮市中,仍充斥著許多此一類型的建築物,(國軍列管眷村據國防部97年統計全國尚有148村)。因後續均未做整體的規劃改建,導致這些老舊木構造建築物多半對火災防範的能力有限,故當火災一旦發生,在台灣居住人口如此密集之現況下,便常常造成重大的人員傷亡及財物的損失,因此研究木構造建築物的火災顯得格外重要。
During the past decades in Taiwan, there were many fire cases occurred in residential buildings, most of which were wooden construction. Recently, despite of the fast development of economy, there still standing a lot of this kind of houses in villages and towns because of none overall rebuild plan. Once the fire happens, it will often cause great casualties and property losses, due to dense population and residential environment, the research in old-fashioned building fires is really important. According to the domestic and abroad records in building fires’ casualties: ”fire” and ”smoke” are obviously main factors endangering people, which make us have no choices but to pay attention to this issue. The purpose of this study is to reduce damage and occurrence of a fire.
