Smoke control is a system designed to limit the spread of smoke in the event of a fire. It works by containing smoke in the area of the fire, preventing it from entering other areas of the building and potentially endangering occupants. Smoke control systems can be active or passive, depending on the type of system used. Active systems are typically mechanical and use fans and dampers to direct smoke away from the area of the fire. Passive systems rely on natural air flow and the design of the building to contain smoke in the area of the fire. Smoke control systems are an important part of any fire safety plan and can help reduce the risk of injury or death in the event of a fire.
