Intent

Intent 1:

To limit the probability that persons will not be familiar with the direction of egress routes, which could lead to exit locations not being readily identified in an emergency situation, which could lead to delays in the evacuation or movement of persons to a safe place, which could lead to harm to persons.

Intent 2:

To expand the application of Clauses 3.4.5.1.(2)(b) and 3.4.5.1.(2)(c) to signs indicating the direction of egress, which would otherwise only apply to exit signs.
