Safety
Italian term or phrase: spazio calmo
nel mio testo si parla di spazio calmo in merito ad un'evacuazione di un edificio:


ho trovato la seguente definizione: luogo sicuro statico contiguo e comunicante con una via di esodo verticale od in essa inserito"
non riesco proprio a trovare nulla come traducente perchè qualsiasi mia opzione sembra ridurre il denso significato tecnico che si cela dietro questa espressione
ringrazio anticipatamente tutti per i loro utilissimi suggerimenti

Explanation:

Gli spazi calmi, nel settore della sicurezza antincendio, sono una zona separata dall’incendio tramite strutture resistenti al fuoco ed in comunicazione diretta con un percorso protetto fino ad un’uscita di piano, che costituisce un luogo temporaneamente sicuro per le persone fisicamente disabili in attesa dell’assistenza per il loro esodo. Gli spazi calmi, che nella normativa tecnica internazionale sono chiamati come refuge areas, possono essere intesi come stanze o ambienti in grado di accogliere tutti coloro che non possono utilizzare le scale per l’esodo.
