This paper, based on the principle of Cellular Automata, simulated the emergent evacuation from a floor of lecture building with different layouts inside the classrooms commonly seen in colleges in China. The psychological factors and behaviors of students during the emergent evacuation were simulated with the distance parameter as the basic judgment for evacuation direction based on Cellular Automata in the present paper. Meanwhile, the impacts of four different internal layouts on the evacuation time, average density, average velocity, and average flow rate were investigated. Simulation results show that the difference in classroom layout affects the evacuation efficiency. It also proves that the classroom layout in Room1 is the most reasonable when emergency evacuation is involved.
