Principles of Smoke Management
Principles of Smoke Management is one of the The ASHRAE Handbooks which are the design standard for control of built environments with volumes on Systems and Equipment, HVAC Applications, Refrigeration and Fundamentals. Each is updated every four years. In addition to publishing design guidance for engineers, architects, and facility managers, we also publish a series of texts for classroom use.
ASHRAE, founded in 1894, is an international organization of some 50,000 persons. ASHRAE fulfills its mission of advancing heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration to serve humanity and promote a sustainable world through research, standards writing, publishing, and continuing education.

Smoke is Organized as the major killer in fire situations .smoke often migrates to building locations remote from the fire space,threatening life and damaging property ,Stairwells and elevator shafts frequently become smoke-logged ,Thereby blocking evacutation and inhibiting rescue and fire fighting.
