SURVEY OF THE DE FACTO POPULATION IN AN UNDERGROUND SHOPPING MALL

Abstract

In order to know the de facto population in an underground shopping mall, we surveyed three large malls in Osaka and Nagoya from 8:00 am to 8:00 pm on a Sunday and a weekday in October or November, and on a Sunday in December. We made a proposal on how to decide the expected population for an evacuation plan during a fire.
