Intent 1:
To limit the probability that deficiencies in fire
emergency systems will go unnoticed, which could lead to such systems
not operating as originally intended in a fire situation, which could
lead to:
- delays or inefficiencies in emergency suppression operations,
which could lead to the spread of fire, which could lead to harm to
persons, including emergency responders,
- delays or inefficiencies in emergency rescue operations,
which could lead to delays in the evacuation or movement of persons
to a safe place, which could lead to harm to persons, including emergency
responders,
- the buildup of smoke on floor areas, which could lead
to delays or inefficiencies in emergency suppression operations, which
could lead to the spread of fire, which could lead to harm to persons,
including emergency responders, and
- the buildup of smoke on floor areas or in exit stair
shafts, which could lead to delays in the evacuation or movement of
persons to a safe place, which could lead to harm to persons.
