3.3.5.3.(2)

Intent 1:

To limit the probability that emergency responders will be delayed in gaining access to basements and rooms containing building services in a fire situation involving another part of the building occupied by the hazardous activity, which could lead to delays in fire emergency response operations, which could lead to:

• delays in the evacuation or movement of persons to a safe place, which could lead to harm to persons, and
• the spread of fire to other parts of the building, which could lead to harm to persons.
