Rehabilitation Guidelines 1980. 5. Egress Guideline for Residential Rehabilitation
This fifth volume of an eight-volume series lists design alternatives for the components of egress that are regulated by current codes, such as number and arrangement of exits, corridors, and stairs; travel distance; dead-end travel; and exit capacity and width. The rehabilitation guidelines are for use by code officials, inspectors, designers, and builders. The volume presents some technical solutions for the code requirements for egress which will establish an approximately equivalent overall level of fire safety although literal code compliance is not achieved. An introductory section describes the applications of the guideline. Basic fire protection and egress principles are reviewed. The various guideline sections are placed in a sequence that parallels the review procedure normally followed by local enforcing officials, beginning with the number of exits and concluding with construction details and specifications. Each of the 11 sections is separated into 3 major parts: a summary of the code requirements and their intent; a discussion of how to identify conditions in a building to determine whether a problem exists; and discussion of selected problems, some representative solutions, and a general narrative relating the two. Footnotes and graphs are included.
