ISO 16730-1 describes what the contents of a technical documentation and of a user’s manual should be for an assessment, if the application of a calculation method as engineering tool to predict real-world scenarios leads to validate results. The purpose of this part of ISO 16730 is to show how ISO 16730-1 is applied to a calculation method, for a specific example. It demonstrates how technical and users’ aspects of the method are properly described in order to enable the assessment of the method in view of verification and validation.

The example in this part of ISO 16730 describes the application of procedures given in ISO 16730-1 for an evacuation model (EXIT89).

The main objective of the specific model treated in this part of ISO 16730 is the simulation of the evacuation of a high-rise building with a large occupant population.
