(a) with congenital fire hazards. In order to reduce costs, some operators rent some houses in old residential areas with low fire resistance rating, aging buildings and narrow roads. There are generally congenital fire hazards that are difficult to rectify, such as insufficient fire separation, blocked evacuation routes and insufficient number of safety exits. Especially in suburban or township streets, buildings along the street are generally two floors, which often leads to shops on the first floor and people living on the second floor. Even some operators use partitions to divide single-storey shops into two floors without authorization, so as to accommodate people or place goods. Once a fire breaks out, the consequences are unimaginable.
(2) Poor fire safety management. Many shop operators along the street have a weak awareness of fire safety, and during the business period, they simply can't think of fire safety issues. No fire extinguishers, emergency lighting and evacuation signs were provided. Or use low-priced fake and shoddy products, causing many fire hazards; The person in charge of the store did not effectively train the recruited staff on fire safety knowledge, so that their staff did not know how to put out the initial fire, how to call the police and evacuate the crowd.
(3) Use combustible materials for decoration, resulting in heavy fire load. Some shops along the street, especially clothing stores, beauty shops, printing shops and other shops, have more combustible materials such as clothes and paper, which are placed at will, and the interior decoration is exquisite and luxurious, and a large number of combustible materials are used for decoration. Even after many renovations, some storefronts have blocked or completely removed the original fire-fighting facilities, such as automatic spray head and indoor fire hydrants. Once a fire breaks out, the consequences are unimaginable.
(4) Arbitrary use of electricity may easily lead to circuit failure. After investigation, it is found that the phenomenon of dead wire connection in shops along the street is serious, and the electricity consumption is very random. Some shops along the street have a large number of heating equipment such as air conditioners and heaters, and the electricity consumption exceeds the original design load of the line. At the same time, electrical equipment is in working condition for a long time, which increases the risk of circuit fire.
(E) A large number of areas, leading to functional departments "out of control". Many newly-built shops along the street or even large commercial shops have not gone through the examination and approval procedures with the fire department. At the same time, due to the wide distribution of shops along the street and the limited police force of the fire department, it is impossible to cover so many places, which brings difficulties to the supervision work of the fire department and other regulatory departments, and it is easy to "get rid of the management" of shops along the street, leaving living space for fire safety hazards to some extent.
Second, the countermeasures to solve the fire safety problems of shops along the street
(a) strict access, based on solving the problem from the source. In order to effectively eliminate the hidden dangers of fire safety in shops along the street, the relevant administrative departments should closely cooperate with each other, put safety first in the examination and approval of health, industry and commerce, housing construction and other links involving shops of a certain scale, strictly regard fire safety as a prerequisite for issuing licenses, and establish a considerable access system; Shops along the street that do not meet the fire safety requirements are resolutely not allowed to operate, based on the soil that eliminates fire hazards from the source.
(two) joint law enforcement, and actively carry out rectification work. Shops along the street have different sizes and architectural forms, but the fire hazards are roughly the same. The fire department shall, jointly with the functional departments of industry and commerce, safety, health, culture and urban management, conduct irregular comprehensive management of shops along the street, take strong rectification measures according to law, and strengthen the general survey and rectification of shops along the street. In the daily fire supervision and inspection, the fire department can actively take the form of on-site punishment to urge it to rectify fire hazards in time and resolutely put an end to major fire accidents. At the same time, it is necessary to give full play to the role of public opinion supervision and guidance of the news media, set up typical cases through news exposure and other forms, create a strong atmosphere of public opinion, and promote shops along the street to actively rectify fire hazards.
(three) to urge the police station to play the role of hierarchical management. Because there are many shops along the street, and there are only a few fire supervision and law enforcement personnel in a county, it is difficult to supervise the implementation by the fire department alone. Therefore, we must give full play to the hierarchical management function of police stations. Supervise the police station to regularly conduct general surveys and rectification of shops along the street within its jurisdiction, find fire hazards, and promptly urge the rectification to be in place. This can fully make up for the current situation of insufficient fire police force and eliminate the fire hidden danger of shops along the street in time.
(four) increase the intensity of fire prevention publicity and training. The public security fire department should combine the "firewall" project, and carry out "four abilities" training for small places along the street, heads of units and employees according to law, so as to improve their fire safety awareness and fire safety ability. Focus on urging shops along the street to standardize the laying of internal electrical lines, equip them with necessary fire safety facilities and equipment, master certain knowledge of fire prevention and fire fighting, and ensure their own fire safety.
