Banda Aceh City was hit by a tsunami at the end of 2004. The experience of this great disaster directly or indirectly has led to many problems that are a must in finding the right solution. It is very important to do in order to minimize the disaster victims of the tsunami in the future. During the rehabilitation and reconstruction period after the 2004 earthquake and tsunami, between 2005 until now, various mitigation efforts have been carried out. One of the tsunami mitigation efforts is to build tsunami evacuation buildings. The city of Banda Aceh is one of the cities in Indonesia that has vertical tsunami evacuation facilities such as escape building. Although it still does not meet the expected availability standards, it can be called the right initial step for Banda Aceh City in the face of the tsunami disaster in the future. However, its existence will be in vain if the community does not use it to its full potential in their daily activities. This study evaluates the effectiveness of the escape building for vertical evacuation based on some supporting literature reviews. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
