Intent 1:
To limit the probability that emergency responders
will not be able to readily use existing elevators, hoists or lifts
in a fire situation, which could lead to delays or inefficiencies
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, including emergency
responders, and
- the spread of fire to other parts of the building,
which could lead to harm to persons, including emergency responders.
