Attribution | |

between dwelling units, where the walls are
constructed as fire separations having not less
than a 1 h fire-resistance rating ].

Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability that a party wall will not be continuous,
which could lead to gaps or openings in the party wall during a fire, which
could lead to the spread of fire from the building to an adjacent building,
which could lead to damage to the adjacent building. |
