Complete Fig. 7.5.1 through 7.5.5 before doing this part.
1. All of the checks in Fig. 7.5.5 are in the “YES” column. The level of fire safety is at least equivalent to that prescribed for large residentail facilities.*
2. One or more of the checks in Fig. 7.5.5 is in the “NO” column. The level of fire safety is not shown by this system to be equivalent to that prescribed by the
Life Safety Code for large residential facilities.
*The equivalency covered by this worksheet includes the majority of consideratons covered by the Life Safety Code. There are a few consideratons that are not evaluated by this method. These must
be considered separately. These additional considerations are covered in the “Facility Fire Safety Requirements Worksheet.” One copy of this separate worksheet is to be completed for each facility.
