A Study on a Design for Effective Evacuation Guidance Sign

Abstract

 In case of disaster, an inappropriate designed sign for evacuation guidance can lead to make human damage greater. So, an evacuation guidance sign should be designed so that it can inform everybody about its meaning. However, in this paper, it is considered that the evacuation guidance sign now in use is not only hard to be understood exactly, also it is apt to be understood quite the opposite. So we verify the importance of some strategic point as a design policy for effective evacuation guidance sign.
