"It is strictly forbidden to set up iron fences outside the prefabricated house, which affects the evacuation of workers. Recently, Hongkou Fire Department carried out a special rectification of "breaking windows and breaking nets", and set up iron fences, anti-theft windows and billboards and other obstacles that affect evacuation and escape in public places such as shops and construction sites along the street.
At the builder's house at No. 591 Changzhong Road, a two-storey prefabricated house is set up on the site, with about 15 rooms on each floor, which can accommodate more than 60 workers. The fire prevention supervisor saw at the scene that most of the iron fences were installed outside the windows of the first-floor board room for anti-theft, which affected the safe evacuation of workers in emergency situations. After interviewing the person in charge of the construction site, it was immediately dismantled and the safety exit function of the window was restored. At present, a total of 168 sites have been discovered and demolished in Hongkou District, covering an area of 200 square meters.
Since the launch of the "Window Demolition and Breaking the Net" action, Hongkou Fire has widely posted more than 4,190 copies of the "Notice of the National Fire and Rescue Bureau on Removing Obstacles Affecting Escape and Fire Fighting and Rescue in Doors and Windows of Densely Populated Places" offline, informing the person in charge of the site to carry out self-inspection and self-improvement actions in accordance with the requirements of the "Notice". At the same time, through the mechanism of "daily dispatch and daily notification", the demolition situation in the area is dynamically grasped to ensure that hidden dangers should be eliminated and the level of public fire safety in the area is improved.
