Passenger Ship Evacuation Analysis with Fire Risk Assessment Approach Using NFPA 551
Tahun 2020
Based on ship accident data by Indonesian National Transportation Safety Committee
(NTSC) from 2018 to 2019, there was 773 ship accidents and 21 of those accidents caused by
fire ,evacuation process when accident occurred is very important. When it is not working, the
number of fatalities will be high. The more number of passengers, the more number fatalities if
the evacuation process is not good. Evacuation failure are generally caused by trapped
passengers in rooms aboard. Therefore an analysis of passenger evacuation is carried out to
determine the risk level of the evacuation route has been created by the designer. The method
used in this study uses a model analysis Fire Risk Assessment based on NFPA 551 with a
qualitative checklist method. The analysis shows the evacuation route for this research object
has not met the passenger safety criteria (SOLAS) related to the number of escape routes both
primary and secondary which is lacking and inappropriate and subsequently for evacuation
routes passengers pass through areas with a high level of fire risk ranking is 5, therefore rearrangement
of evacuation routes is needed to avoid areas of high fire risk or by re-arrangement
of the galley location, especially on the 3rd deck
