Question: 1 / 400

A one-hour fire wall is required for which types of facilities?

Ambulatory care, board and care, or business occupancy

A one-hour fire wall is typically required to separate ambulatory care, board and care, or business occupancies from other facilities because these areas involve high egress traffic which increases the risk of fire. Emergency care, intensive care, surgery rooms, nursing homes, hospitals, and rehabilitation centers often have other fire safety measures in place such as sprinkler systems that reduce the need for a one-hour fire wall. Residential homes, daycare centers, and schools generally have a lower occupancy and less risk of fire, therefore a one-hour fire wall is not typically required for these types of facilities.
