abstract="This overview of the information and literature provides insight to the problems relating to means of egress. To provide a comprehensive as well as critical review of the field, the reader is especially referred to the reviews and assessments of the U.S. National Bureau of Standards relating to the technical basis for egress standards. Also mentioned are other broadly oriented publications, along with those describing large-scale studies of human movement related to egress. A basic list of references is suggested. For additional insight several excerpts relating to the controversial unit exit width concept are provided from U.S. and British committee efforts in 1935 and 1952.<p />",
