The goal of this research project is to develop performance based fire design (PBFD) guidance for the Canadian consultancy practitioner to allow for the understanding of human behaviour and the role it has on the design of infrastructure. Human behaviour is a complex subject due to varied demographics and the uncertainties that they present. However, using pedestrian behaviour modelling techniques, these uncertainties can be reduced and incorporated in the design of infrastructure. This Collaborative Research and Development (CRD) project will be a collaboration between ARUP Canada and York University. ARUP Canada is a reputable organization which supports research of pedestrian behaviour modelling through the development of its pedestrian modelling software MassMotion. MassMotion is a software that is being developed to generate alternative solutions to traditional design that can incorporate complex human behaviour with reduced uncertainties. This research project looks at three types of infrastructure: stadiums, museums and retirement and long term care homes. Human behaviour data has been obtained for each infrastructure and this data will be quantified for use in the MassMotion software in order to develop its capabilities of modelling human behaviour with reduced uncertainty, particularly the interactions between staff and building occupants as seen in these structure types. The overarching objectives of the project are to include: (1) exploring issues with pedestrian movement modelling softwares that are currently available such as MassMotion; (2) assessing the designs of three types of common infrastructure which will house diverse populations dependent on staff interaction (care homes, museums, stadiums); (3) developing, validating and verifying MassMotion software for use in emergency evacuation and day-to-day normal ingress and egress operational scenarios; and (4) helping establish input for an appropriate framework for PBFD for consideration into future National Building Code of Canada editions and other North American codes and standards.****

该研究项目的目标是为加拿大咨询从业者制定基于性能的消防设计（PBFD）指南，以了解人类行为及其在基础设施设计中的作用。人类行为是一个复杂的问题，由于不同的人口和他们所提出的不确定性。然而，使用行人行为建模技术，这些不确定性可以减少，并纳入基础设施的设计。这个合作研究与发展（CRD）项目将是ARUP加拿大和约克大学之间的合作。ARUP Canada是一个著名的组织，通过开发行人建模软件MassMotion支持行人行为建模的研究。MassMotion是一款正在开发的软件，用于生成传统设计的替代解决方案，可以将复杂的人类行为与减少的不确定性结合起来。该研究项目着眼于三种类型的基础设施：体育场，博物馆和退休和长期护理院。已经获得了每个基础设施的人类行为数据，这些数据将被量化用于MassMotion软件，以开发其在减少不确定性的情况下模拟人类行为的能力，特别是在这些结构类型中看到的工作人员和建筑物占用者之间的相互作用。该项目的总体目标包括：（1）探索目前可用的行人运动建模软件（如MassMotion）的问题;（2）评估三种类型的公共基础设施的设计，这些基础设施将根据工作人员的互动容纳不同的人群（护理院、博物馆、体育馆）;（3）开发，验证和检验MassMotion软件在紧急疏散和日常正常进出操作场景中的使用;以及（4）帮助建立PBFD适当框架的输入，以考虑到未来的加拿大国家建筑规范版本和其他北美规范和标准。*
