Route Diagram Elements

Exit routes are the backbone of any fire escape route diagram. OSHA 29 CFR 1910.36 and 1910.37 (exit route design and maintenance) and NFPA 101 (Life Safety Code) expects routes that are continuous, unobstructed, and clearly marked from any occupied point to a public way. OSHAMap traces each route from a "You Are Here" position to the nearest suitable exit, draws directional arrows along corridors, and keeps travel paths visible so occupants can follow them without backtracking.

Visual Path Indicators

A dependable fire escape route diagram balances accuracy with readability. OSHAMap draws on OSHA 29 CFR 1910.157 (portable fire extinguishers) to position extinguishers placed so travel distance to a Class A unit does not exceed 75 feet, with pull stations and alarm devices clearly located, then presents it cleanly so the map is easy to follow under stress. You can refine any element in the editor, making the final fire escape route diagram both standards-aware and specific to your space.

Route Alternatives

On a fire escape route diagram, the value is in the path itself: occupants need to see, at a glance, which way leads out. Drawing on OSHA 29 CFR 1910.36 and 1910.37 (exit route design and maintenance) and NFPA 101 (Life Safety Code), the generator routes evacuation arrows through actual corridors rather than across walls, marks primary and alternate exits, and respects realistic travel distances — so the diagram reflects how people would genuinely move, not an idealized straight line.
