Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability that delays or ineffectiveness
in shutting off the ventilation system will result in continued air movement
in the ventilation system, which could lead to the spread of a fire in the
power-ventilated enclosure to other parts of the building, which could lead
to damage to the building. Intent 2: To limit the probability of delays or ineffectiveness in
turning on the ventilation system in the event of the accidental release of
ignitable vapours or particles, which could lead to a fire or explosion, which
