Description

For the most timely and accurate life safety facts, you need a copy of the 2000 Life Safety Code. And for help understanding its revised and restructured rules, there’s the Life Safety Code Handbook. This resource includes the complete 2000 Code text plus commentary, examples, illustrations and other “extras” from the same engineers who oversee Code development.

This 2000 edition Handbook makes all other references obsolete! Only the 2000 Handbook follows the restructured Code…and it’s the only place you’ll find a cross reference to the 1997 edition! Our Handbook provides much more than explanations and rationale concerning Code requirements. It’s packed with advice on working with other documents as well, such as the 1999 editions of NFPA 13: Installation of Sprinkler Systems, NFPA 72: National Fire Alarm Code, and NFPA 99: Health Care Facilities. This guide is essential for anyone in fire protection!

On over 1,100 fact-filled pages, NFPA’s Handbook provides you with…
–The 2000 Life Safety Code text, with requirements for “new” and “existing” construction shown side by side.
–Unified commentary, rationale, and examples from NFPA’s life safety experts shown directly beneath Code rules.
