Follow me and I will share some interesting stories and experiences on a regular basis to exchange educational experiences together.
A fire in Xinyu City, Jiangxi Province, started in a cold storage renovation shop, killing 39 people and injuring nine. The fire occurred on the ground floor, but why is the university student training institution on the second floor facing such a serious **? According to eyewitnesses, the fire quickly spread to the second floor, and more than 40 university students in the classroom could barely escape. This article will analyze the reasons why it is difficult for students to escape and examine the causes of the fire.
The training facility has a classroom area of about 60 square meters and accommodates more than 40 students, with wooden desks and chairs. Such a crowded space makes it difficult for students to move and escape. In addition, these wooden furniture are inherently flammable materials, and once ignited by fire, smoke and fire can spread quickly, making it difficult to escape.
The training facility did not have a proper security path, with only a small door for one person and a small window that could not be opened. When the fire spreads into the classroom, the smoke fills quickly, and if the students are far away from the escape exit, the chances of escape are greatly reduced. This undoubtedly made it more difficult for the students to escape.
A stove for heating was placed outside the classroom. When a fire breaks out, the carbon monoxide produced by the stove spreads rapidly, leading to an increased risk of poisoning for trapped students. Carbon monoxide is a colorless and odorless gas, which can easily cause uncomfortable symptoms such as dizziness and vomiting, which in turn affects the ability to escape.
Many insulation materials are used in the renovation of cold storage, and these materials will produce a lot of smoke and toxic chemicals in the event of a fire. These toxic substances can accelerate the spread of fire and pose a serious threat to the human respiratory system, making it more difficult for trapped students to escape.
First of all, the cold storage decoration workers ignited the insulation material during the illegal operation, which caused the fire to spread rapidly. Secondly, the relevant supervision and inspection work is not in place, and it is unknown whether the construction of cold storage meets the specifications. Together, these two factors contributed to this tragedy.
The tragedy of this disaster once again reminds us that we cannot take fire safety issues lightly. There is still a tendency of formalism in the fire drills every month every year, and the investigation of fire hazards by relevant departments is not in place, resulting in tragedies repeatedly. We should take caution, don't take life as a child's play, pay attention to fire safety, and conduct regular drills and investigations to ensure the safety of everyone's life.
The fire occurred in a cold storage renovation shop in Xinyu City, Jiangxi Province, killing 39 people and injuring 9 others. According to eyewitness reports, the fire quickly spread to the second-floor training institute for university students, leaving more than 40 university students unable to escape. The main reasons are: crowded classroom spaces that make it difficult for students to move, lack of safe access reduces the chances of escape, increased risk of carbon monoxide poisoning, and fires are exacerbated by thick smoke and the release of toxic chemicals. The cause of the fire was the illegal operation of the cold storage decoration workers and the lack of relevant supervision and inspection. This tragedy once again reminds us to pay attention to fire safety, conduct regular drills and investigations, and ensure the safety of everyone's lives. We must not treat life as child's play, and we must always be vigilant and comply with fire safety regulations to avoid similar tragedies from happening again.
