APPLICATION:
Separation, with respect to the type of construction,
of
combustible sprinkler piping from the area served by the sprinkler system and from any other
fire compartment.
INTENT:
To limit the probability that combustible sprinkler piping
will not be protected against fire exposure, which could lead to the failure
of the piping in a fire situation, which could lead to the fire not being
suppressed or controlled, which could lead to the spread of fire to other
parts of the building, which could lead to harm to persons.
