1.0.1 This code is formulated with a view to preventing fire accidents in buildings, reducing fire hazards and protecting personal and property safety.
1.0.2 This code is applicable to the following constructed, renovated and extended buildings:
1 Factory buildings;
2 Storages;
3 Civil buildings;
4 Class A, B, C liquid tanks (tank farm);
5 Combustible and combustion-supporting gas tanks (tank farm);
6 Stackyard for combustibles;
7 City road tunnels.
If special national standards are available, the fire protection design of buildings for civil air defense engineering, petroleum and natural gas engineering, petrochemical engineering, thermal power plants and substations should comply with such standards.
1.0.3 This code is not applicable to the fire protection design of buildings such as factory buildings (storages) for gunpowder, explosive and their products as well as fireworks and firecrackers.
1.0.4 Where occupancies for different purposes are arranged in the same building, fire separation shall be provided between them. The fire protection design for this building and their functional occupancies shall be determined according to the relevant requirements of this code.
1.0.5 The fire protection design of buildings shall comply with the relevant national principles and policies, and guarantee, on the whole, safety and usability, advanced technology as well as economy and rationality according to the characteristics of buildings and fire hazards in them.
1.0.6 In addition to meeting the requirements of this code, the buildings with height larger than 250m shall also be taken with stricter fire prevention measures according to the actual conditions. Their fire protection design shall be submitted to the national fire authorities for subject study and demonstration.
1.0.7 In addition to the requirements of this code, the fire protection design of buildings shall also comply with those specified in the current relevant standards of the nation.
