Abstract
 In the risk management of the campus for natural disaster and large fire disaster, not only improvement on the facility, but also the evacuation plan for the quick and smooth evacuation behavior based on the self-help and mutual assistance by students and faculty members must be established. In this study, the evacuation simulations from the lecture rooms to the appointment refuge places in the university campus are constructed, and the time and space information on the evacuation transit time and route to the appointment places are analyzed. Based on the simulation results, the shortening effect in the evacuation time by spot facility improvements due to the structural vulnerability analyses on the evacuation routes and by the setting of the evacuation routes are examined. As the effective evacuation behavior, the model which hands over the evacuation route to the refugees from the upper floors is proposed. The new model's effectiveness on evacuation time reduction is evaluated; finally the most optimal evacuation paths are completed.
