Abstract

Safety is generally divided into two categories i.e. safety at public places and safety at roads. Safety at public places are further subdivided into safety at Hall e.g. Shopping mall, Movie Theatre.Public place can vary through the course of the day which can be used by different groups of people at different times. It may be busy at certain times and sometimes not busy and those differences can have a very different impact on the way you feel when you are in them. So a good planning from an early stage will help to run every event safely. In this model I have studied how the time of evacuation from a hall gets affected due to the width of the door. Road safety refers to measures and methods for reducing the risk of a person using the road network being killed or seriously injured. In this model I have studied how road accident gets affected due to road factors. Road factors generally refers to the Geometric features of the road(Horizontal radius,Vertical curve and superelevation), and the manmade features. Manmade features refers to the features made by man (Roadway obstacles, Adjacent structures which are present very nearer to the road and the posters present along the road) To demonstrate the developed model by regression, empirical data is used.
