| Intent | Intent 1: To supersede the requirements of Sentence 3.6.2.1.(7),
which would otherwise require a minimum 1 h fire separation,
and require a higher minimum rated separation, on the basis that there is
a higher risk of fire or explosion where there is an incinerator.
Intent 2: To limit the probability that fire will spread from a service
room containing an incinerator to other parts of the building, which could
lead to damage to the building. Intent 3: To limit the probability that a fire originating in a location
outside a service room containing an incinerator will spread into the service
room, which could lead to the disruption and discontinuation of service from
equipment located in the service room, which could lead to an undue fire hazard
in the building, which could lead to damage to the building. |
