Means of Egress Components - Permissible Exit Components |
||||||
|
An exit shall consist only of the approved exit components. Although wording
here refers to "exit components," it is applied to all components of the means
of egress. Exit components shall be constructed as an integral part of the building or
permanently affixed to the building. For instance, a door to an exit or on route to an exit
access must be a side-hinged, swinging type. Note that an ordinary outside fire escape, installed on older buildings, is not recognized as a safe means of egress in new building construction. |
