✦ Synopsis

Supermarkets are typical crowded public places where the accident caused by evacuation congestion in any emergency event happened easily. In this paper, the number of customers, the ratio of personnel's age, the walking speed and other basic datas were obtained by present observation in a typical supermarket. On this basis, the evacuation scenarios were simulated by buildingEXODUS software for this supermarket and the safety performance was analysed. At last, the safety measures of supermarket management for evacuation were proposed.
