Objectives

1) The objectives of this Code are as follows (see Appendix A):
OS Safety
An objective of this Code is to limit the probability that, as a result of specific circumstances related to the building or facility, a person in or adjacent to the building or facility will be exposed to an unacceptable risk of injury.
OS1 Fire Safety
An objective of this Code is to limit the probability that, as a result of
  1. activities related to the construction, use or demolition of the building or facility,
  2. the condition of specific elements of the building or facility,
  3. the design or construction of specific elements of the facility related to certain hazards, or
  4. inadequate built-in protection measures for the current or intended use of the building,
a person in or adjacent to the building or facility will be exposed to an unacceptable risk of injury due to fire. The risks of injury due to fire addressed in this Code are those caused by—
OS1.1 - 
fire or explosion occurring
OS1.2 - 
fire or explosion impacting areas beyond its point of origin
OS1.3 - 
collapse of physical elements due to a fire or explosion
OS1.4 - 
fire safety systems failing to function as expected
OS1.5 - 
persons being delayed in or impeded from moving to a safe place during a fire emergency
OS3 Safety in Use
An objective of this Code is to limit the probability that, as a result of
  1. activities related to the construction, use or demolition of the building or facility,
  2. the condition of specific elements of the building or facility,
  3. the design or construction of specific elements of the facility related to certain hazards, or
  4. inadequate built-in protection measures for the current or intended use of the building,
a person in or adjacent to the building or facility will be exposed to an unacceptable risk of injury due to hazards. The risks of injury due to hazards addressed in this Code are those caused by—
OS3.1 - 
tripping, slipping, falling, contact, drowning or collision
OS3.2 - 
contact with hot surfaces or substances
OS3.3 - 
contact with energized equipment
OS3.4 - 
exposure to hazardous substances
OS3.7 - 
persons being delayed in or impeded from moving to a safe place during an emergency (see Appendix A)
OH Health
An objective of this Code is to limit the probability that, as a result of specific circumstances related to the building or facility, a person will be exposed to an unacceptable risk of illness.
OH5 Hazardous Substances Containment
An objective of this Code is to limit the probability that, as a result of
  1. activities related to the construction, use or demolition of the building or facility,
  2. the condition of specific elements of the building or facility,
  3. the design or construction of specific elements of the facility related to certain hazards, or
  4. inadequate built-in protection measures for the current or intended use of the building,
the public will be exposed to an unacceptable risk of illness due to the release of hazardous substances from the building or facility.
OP Fire Protection of Buildings and Facilities
An objective of this Code is to limit the probability that, as a result of specific circumstances related to the building or facility, the building or facility will be exposed to an unacceptable risk of damage due to fire.
OP1 Fire Protection of the Building or Facility
An objective of this Code is to limit the probability that, as a result of
  1. activities related to the construction, use or demolition of the building or facility,
  2. the condition of specific elements of the building or facility,
  3. the design or construction of specific elements of the facility related to certain hazards, or
  4. inadequate built-in protection measures for the current or intended use of the building,
the building or facility will be exposed to an unacceptable risk of damage due to fire. The risks of damage due to fire addressed in this Code are those caused by—
OP1.1 - 
fire or explosion occurring
OP1.2 - 
fire or explosion impacting areas beyond its point of origin
OP1.3 - 
collapse of physical elements due to a fire or explosion
OP1.4 - 
fire safety systems failing to function as expected
OP3 Protection of Adjacent Buildings or Facilities from Fire
An objective of this Code is to limit the probability that, as a result of
  1. activities related to the construction, use or demolition of the building or facility,
  2. the condition of specific elements of the building or facility,
  3. the design or construction of specific elements of the facility related to certain hazards, or
  4. inadequate built-in protection measures for the current or intended use of the building,
adjacent buildings or facilities will be exposed to an unacceptable risk of damage due to fire. The risks of damage to adjacent buildings and facilities due to fire addressed in this Code are those caused by—
OP3.1 - 
fire or explosion impacting areas beyond the building or facility of origin
