This research aims to demonstrate the importance of the smoke control system in buildings for collective use, in order to further popularize its utilization against life threatening situations. The purpose of this research is to examine the subject of smoke extraction using as an example a building that was built based on the Eurocode standards so this system can eventually turn into one of the possible resources to be applied in the Santa Catarina region. Exploratory research was adopted as a methodology with a case study approach, in which the data was gathered through a bibliographic research. The results show that the legislation currently in place in the state of Santa Catarina does not solve the largest cause of deaths by accident, which is asphyxiation by smoke inhalation. It is known that the authorities’ responsibilities lies upon ruling and oversighting. The study shows adverse situations where one or more failures caused a high number of deaths, with asphyxiation due to smoke inhalation being the main cause of these deaths. Thus, taking the results of this research into account, a possible alternative was pointed out in view of the reality of the state in buildings for collective use. The study data suggests that the presence of the smoke control system combined with other fire prevention methods significantly increase the safety of the occupants of the building.
