NFPA 92 (Standard for Smoke Control Systems)

NFPA 92 is a standard that provides guidelines for designing and maintaining smoke control systems in buildings. These systems help manage smoke movement during fires to protect occupants, facilitate safe evacuation, and assist firefighting efforts. The standard covers the placement, operation, and testing of equipment like exhaust fans, vents, and dampers. By controlling smoke, NFPA 92 enhances safety by reducing smoke inhalation risks and improving visibility during emergencies, ultimately helping to prevent injuries and save lives in fire situations.
