A Case Study of Mantos 7B Mall: Responsive Outdoor Space Planning for Natural Disasters
Areas vulnerable to earthquakes and tsunamis require careful planning and responsive outdoor space design.
This mixed-use mall in coastal Manado offers a crucial case study for emergency preparedness.
The primary goal is to ensure a fast, safe, and efficient evacuation process for all.
Understanding the importance of planning and layout during the occurrence of natural disasters.
With a solid plan in place, risks and damage from disasters may be effectively reduced.
The mall covers a substantial 65,000 m², providing a large area to manage during emergencies.
Each of the mall's three floors spans 25,000 m², creating significant evacuation challenges.
A 10-story hotel adds vertical complexity to the evacuation plan and population density.
The 30,000 m² parking area needs careful traffic management during emergencies.
At 75% capacity during peak hours, the mall presents a high-density evacuation scenario.
The main road in front of the mall is one-way, causing heavy traffic and pedestrian congestion.
High pedestrian traffic adds to the complexity of evacuation efforts, especially near exits.
The mall's location near the coast introduces tsunami risks that require specific planning.
Planning routes for emergency vehicles during traffic will be a challenge to overcome.
Recognizing and solving traffic challenges on the road and coast will reduce damages.
Evacuation routes must be kept clear of any obstructions to ensure smooth flow.
Routes should be at least 1.8 meters wide in typical areas, expanding to 2.4 meters in dense zones.
Plazas and parking areas can serve as temporary holding areas for evacuees.
Clear and visible signage in multiple languages is key for guiding people along routes.
Keeping the route well maintained is a must for ensuring safety to all the pedestrians.
Separate lanes must be maintained for emergency vehicles to ensure rapid access to the site.
Strict parking enforcement is needed to prevent blocking emergency vehicle routes.
Effective traffic management plans are crucial to keep roads clear during emergencies.
Coordination between security personnel, responders, and management is key for safe passages.
With training, security personnel and responders will be able to take charge in difficult times.
Ensuring sufficient parking spaces helps prevent haphazard parking that obstructs emergency vehicles.
Specific parking zones should be designated for emergency vehicles near key access points.
Parking regulations and emergency vehicle zones need to be clearly marked with signage.
Encouraging alternative transportation during peak hours will decrease parking and traffic.
Enforcing existing policies is a must for ensuring access to the correct responders in good time.
The plaza should be designed to accommodate a large number of evacuees safely and efficiently.
The parking area can serve as overflow space but needs clear management to avoid congestion.
Open spaces must be easily accessible from all parts of the mall, with multiple entry points.
Strategically placed emergency supplies in the open spaces will help to respond better.
Understanding and following safety protocols is a must to reduce damage and improve safety.
Employ channeling strategies such as barriers and signage to direct pedestrian flow effectively.
Trained personnel should be stationed at key points to manage crowd behavior and prevent panic.
Ensure that all exits are clearly marked and easily accessible, prioritizing those nearest evacuation routes.
Managing traffic lights will ease congestion and help speed up evacuation for people.
Staying up to date with local and natural events helps to know safety procedures to stay safe.
Involve local authorities, mall management, and community members in disaster preparedness planning.
Conduct regular evacuation drills to familiarize occupants with procedures and identify weaknesses.
Regularly review and update evacuation plans based on new information and lessons learned from drills.
Improving communication strategies will further ease the panic in emergency situations.
Implementing innovative solutions will further improve safety for workers and pedestrians.
