What is a life safety analysis?

A life safety analysis is a systematic and comprehensive evaluation of the potential risks and hazards associated with a building or facility. The purpose of a life safety analysis is to identify potential life safety hazards, evaluate the effectiveness of existing safety features, and develop a plan to implement improvements. It typically includes a review of building design, fire suppression systems, evacuation plans, emergency lighting, electrical systems, structural integrity, and other related factors. The objective of a life safety analysis is to ensure that a building or facility can minimize the risk of injury or loss of life in the event of an emergency or disaster.
