OS1 | OP1 |
Objective | OS1 Fire Safety |
Attribution | |
Application | Application 1: Maximum size of openings in an interior fire
separation required to be protected with a closure where
the fire compartments on both sides of the fire separation are sprinklered,
in buildings described in Sentence 1.3.3.2.(1) of Division A. |
Top of Page | |
Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability that large closures--which are
permitted to have a lower resistance to fire than do the fire separations--will
reduce the fire-resistance rating of the fire separations, which could lead
to the spread of fire from one fire compartment to another fire compartment,
which could lead to harm to persons in the other fire compartment.
