The risks that carbon monoxide pose to health have been well documented and car exhaust fumes are a rich
source of this gas. This requires that all enclosed car parks are monitored for hazardous gas concentrations and the
control of the carbon monoxide levels within permissible limits by proper ventilation fans. The CFD analysis of
Basement-1 of car park lead to a conclusion that CO level are below 35ppm and within permissible limit, which is the
maximum exposure limit as per ASHRAE handbook 2007. Still two jets were installed to ensure quick exit of smoke in
case of fire .
