STAIRWELL PRESSURISATION CALCULATION - DOOR OPENING
FORCE (MOHANADI)
As per BS 5588-4:1998: The maximum pressure differential across a door opening into a pressurised
space is determined using the flooowing equation:
Fdc is the force required to open the door without a pressure differential applied across
the door. E.g. The door closer mechanism etc (in N)
W is the width of the door (in M)
A is the area of cross section of the door (in m2)
d is the distance from the door knob to the knob side of the door (in m)
If at design stage, the force required to overcome the door closer is unknown, a maximum pressure
differential of 60 Pa may be utilised for design purpose.
