What Makes a Evacuation Diagram AS 3745-2010 Compliant?
A compliant evacuation diagram must clearly show the occupant’s current location with a visible “You Are Here” marker, and be oriented to match the viewer’s perspective so it can be easily understood at a glance. Exit points and evacuation routes must be clearly identified, including both primary and alternate paths of travel.
The diagram should also display the location of key fire and emergency equipment such as fire extinguishers, hose reels, hydrants, manual call points, first aid kits, and defibrillators where applicable. Assembly area locations must be shown, along with a clear legend explaining all symbols used throughout the diagram.
Each diagram must include an issue date and a validity date to ensure it remains current and suitable for use as part of the building’s emergency planning.

How many evacuation diagrams does my building require?
The number of evacuation diagrams required depends on the size, layout, and occupancy of the building. Under AS 3745-2010, evacuation diagrams must be displayed in prominent and strategic locations such as near exits, stairwells, lifts, corridors, and areas where occupants gather.
Each level of a building typically requires multiple diagrams to ensure they are clearly visible from any point of travel. Our certified Fire Safety Advisor can determine the correct number and placement to ensure full compliance.
Are evacuation diagrams legally required?
Yes. Certain buildings are legally required to display evacuation diagrams under fire safety and workplace health and safety regulations. These diagrams must comply with AS 3745-2010 – Planning for Emergencies in Facilities.
Commercial buildings, multi-occupancy properties, and high-traffic facilities are typically required to have compliant evacuation diagrams clearly displayed to assist occupants during an emergency.
Can evacuation diagrams be prepared without a site visit?
In many cases, yes. Evacuation diagrams can be prepared remotely using accurate and up-to-date floor plans, building layouts, and emergency equipment details.
However, site verification may be recommended if floor plans are outdated or if there are complex fire safety installations that require confirmation. Our process allows for fully online preparation while ensuring compliance with AS 3745-2010.
