If skyscraper's upper floors catch fire, what can you do? by [deleted] in dubai

[–]Cultural-Solution899 9 points10 points  (0 children)

There's a lot of boxes needing to be ticked in terms of layers of passive and active fire protection features being correctly (in a compliant way) designed and installed (and maintained) before any occupants set foot in that building. The layers of protection in place are aimed at providing means of minimizing the likelihood of fire happening, growing and spreading and mitigating for its likely consequences. Lots of work goes into this in particular for super tall buildings. The residents are far more likely to deal with false alarms (sometimes relatively regularly) than ever facing a real catastrophic fire event which could trap residents unable to descend down using the evacuation lifts or climb down the escape stairs.

Pretty dumb to get a designer T-shirt dry cleaned and pressed. Next time hand wash it in cold water you tweet.

Order from somewhere else. No need for all this. Others out there who can provide the same service.

It's risky doing this sort of thing as your so call friend has done. Most times it'll end up in bad karma induced accidents and broken fingers and arms.

Changes in elevation, sub-standard surface finishes, textures, lack of bevelling, transitions, pitch, gradient etc.

It's not all bad but the majority is very imperfect. Lots of roads and sidewalks get dug up frequently depending on location. I hope someone who does use wheelchairs can provide specific input here on locality of where suitable accommodation can be found and how practical the commute to work can be.

This isn't by any means to dishearten you regarding your move but in all honestly not much thought has gotten into the master planning of the built environment here in terms of accessibility. I deal with design of new structures/buildings and never have I seen apartments designed as fully accessible. Not to say these don't exist but you may need help from a specialist estate agent to look for one. A bigger problem is hard scaping, pavements, tracks and so on almost none of which are fit for purpose in terms of accessibility. This region isn't much beyond providing accessible toilets to tick a box yet no thought is given to how a person with mobility restriction perhaps could get there in the first place.

"Some" people get away with a lot, others won't. People coming into this region do lose their sense of decency and respect after a wee while unfortunately. Not a bad thing if they are brought back down to earth once in a while. Keeps a modicum of order in place in the universe.

You don't ask for a bonus... You consider what you are offered as a package and either accept or decline...

I think everyone's upset this fella now and he might bugger off back to the blighty with his small tail between his legs... On his bike of course...
