The document outlines requirements for fire exits in buildings with four or more storeys. It specifies that fire exits must have a minimum two-hour fire resistance rating and be constructed of non-combustible materials supported by two-hour fire resistant construction. Doors cannot open directly onto stairs without a landing, and landings must be at least as wide as the door. Stairways designated as fire exits must extend continuously from the top floor to the ground floor. A smokeproof enclosure for stairs is required and must be enclosed by two-hour fire resistant barriers where vestibules are used.
