crawl spaces that do not exceed 1.8�m in height and that are not used for

| Intent | Intent 1: To exempt floors above certain crawl spaces from the requirements
of Sentence 9.10.9.4.(1), which would otherwise require the floors to
be fire separations, on the basis that the height of the crawl space is limited
and the crawl space is not used as an occupancy or as a plenum, and thus the
crawl space is not expected to present an undue fire risk. |
