Fire code standards are regulations established to enhance fire safety by preventing fires, protecting lives, and reducing property damage. They typically outline requirements for fire prevention, building design, fire protection systems (such as alarms and sprinklers), emergency exits, and occupancy limits. Additionally, fire codes address fire department access, hazardous materials handling, and inspection procedures. Enforced by local authorities, these standards ensure compliance and promote safety in residential, commercial, and public buildings.
