Escape slings are often installed in high-rising buildings, but when a fire starts, the utilization rate of escape slings is very low. This is due to the difficulty of operating an escape sling and also the unstable way that it fastens, which deters people from using it. In this study, we found the most common human mistake through an escape sling operating test. We also found people’s feelings and suggestions about the escape sling through a questionnaire survey. Using the TRIZ method to redesign the escape sling and confirm the result with the TOPSIS method. At last, through expert interviews we verified the results, and moreover, got advice for making the products better. This product feasibility study ameliorates the escape sling’s problems by improving intuitive wearing, giving more protection and simplifying the operation process for affected people to reduce errors and operating time, giving them a better chance to escape.
