| Objective | OP3 Protection of Adjacent Buildings from Fire |
| Attribution | |
| Application | Application 1: Calculating the area of an exposing
building face, where the building is divided
into fire compartments by fire
separations having a fire-resistance rating of
not less than 45 min. This applies to buildings described in Sentence 1.3.3.2.(1) of Division A.

| Intent | Intent 1: To supersede the requirements of Sentence 3.2.3.2.(1) and
state a different [less onerous] method for calculating the area of an exposing
building face, if certain conditions are met, on the basis that the conditions
provide an equivalent level of protection. This [the conditions]
is to limit the probability that an entire exposing building face will be
involved in a fire, which could lead to the spread of fire from the subject
building to an adjacent building, which could lead to damage to the adjacent
building.
