40 NFPA 80A Recommended practice for fire protection of buildings from exterior fire exposures

41

42 NFPA 80A Provides an objective approach for the designer to determine and mitigate fire risk

43 Fire Risk Determined By: Building Construction Opening Protectives Building Size

44 Fire Risk Mitigation Distance Between Buildings Residential Fire Sprinklers Fire Resistive Construction

45 Application Example SD #99-00366 Roseberry Section 1 Lots 12 & 13

46

47 Exposure Analysis Width of Building - 48 ft Height of Building - 30 ft Fire Severity - Light Percent of Openings - 100%

48 Exposure Analysis Table Calculation 48 ft / 30 ft = 1.6 Guide number is 1.74 Separation Distance = (1.74 x 30 ft) + 5 ft = 57 ft

49 Means of Protection Spatial Separation - Table 2-3 Construction Improvements Residential Fire Sprinklers
