OS1 Fire Safety

Attribution

[F20,F22-OS1.2]Applies to assemblies required to provide fire resistance.

Intent

Intent 1:

To limit the probability of inadequate determination of compliance with specified strength criteria, which could lead to inadequate strength, which could lead to an inability to resist expected gravity loads, which could lead to the excessive deflection of roofs.

Where assemblies are required to provide fire resistance, this is to limit the probability of compromised fire resistance of the assembly, which could lead to harm to persons.
