Debris shadow
A debris shadow is the danger area that can be hit by falling debris. In the event of damage ( fire , earthquake , flood , erosion, etc.) there is a risk to life in the rubble shadow; staying there is only justifiable for the immediate rescue of people, for support or to tear the rubble. End walls (gable walls) can easily tip over if the rest of the building structure is weakened or no longer present.
In fire and disaster control , it is of considerable importance when setting up assembly points , designing escape and rescue routes and also when deploying forces. If this is not taken care of, fire-fighting and rescue work can be made considerably more difficult, and rescue personnel and people who have already been rescued can be harmed.
