| Intent | Intent 1: To supersede the application of Sentence 3.3.1.9.(7) to
permit dead-end corridors up to a certain length on the basis that additional
safety measures are required in this type of occupancy. This
is to limit the probability that persons or patients will become delayed or
trapped in a dead-end portion of a corridor in an emergency situation, which
could lead to delays in the evacuation or movement of persons to a safe place,
which could lead to harm to persons.
