question 3 of 6
floors or to the outside of the building.
a. designated exits and means of egress must not be
next to one another.
b. all corridors and paths to exits must be kept clear of
obstruction.
c. exit stairways and fire escapes must have railings
designed for use by children.
q. which of the following would not fall under section a?
a. assign smoking areas 20 feet from building
b. avoid using candles or other flammable objects
c. indicate egress options using an evacuation map
d. use fireproof, commercial - grade fabrics
First, we need to understand what Section A (about exits and egress) covers. Option A relates to building safety (smoking area distance), B relates to fire safety (avoid flammable objects), D relates to fire safety (fireproof fabrics). Option C is about indicating egress options via an evacuation map, which is more about egress planning but let's re - evaluate. Wait, the question is which does NOT fall under Section A (exits and egress rules). Wait, maybe I misread. Wait, the original Section A (the a, b, c) are about exits: a is about exit placement, b about clear paths, c about railings. Now the options: A: smoking area 20ft from building – related to building safety/egress? Maybe. B: avoid flammable objects – fire safety, maybe related. C: indicate egress options with evacuation map – this is about indicating egress, which is related to exits? Wait, no, maybe. Wait, D: fireproof fabrics – fire safety. Wait, maybe the key is that Section A is about exits (physical exits, paths, railings), while option C is about indicating egress (evacuation map) which is more about signage/communication for egress, but the other options (A, B, D) are about safety measures around the building or fire prevention. Wait, no, let's think again. The question is which does NOT fall under Section A. Let's analyze each option:
- Option A: Assigning smoking areas 20 feet from the building – this is a safety measure related to the building's exterior and egress (keeping the area around exits clear? Maybe).
- Option B: Avoid using candles or other flammable objects – fire safety, which is related to egress (preventing fire that could block egress).
- Option C: Indicate egress options using an evacuation map – this is about marking egress routes, which is a different aspect from the physical exits (like placement, clear paths, railings) in Section A. Wait, no, maybe I'm wrong. Wait, the original Section A's points (a, b, c) are about the physical exits and paths. Option C is about communicating egress options, while A, B, D are about safety measures to protect the egress system. Wait, no, maybe the correct answer is C? Wait, no, let's check again. Wait, the question is which does NOT fall under Section A. Let's see:
Wait, maybe the key is that Section A is about the exits themselves (placement, clear paths, railings), while option C is about indicating egress (evacuation map) which is a different category. The other options (A: smoking area distance – related to building perimeter and egress safety; B: avoiding flammable objects – fire safety to protect egress; D: fireproof fabrics – fire safety to protect the building and egress). Option C is about showing egress options, which is more about signage for egress, but maybe the answer is C? Wait, no, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, let's re - read the question. The question is "Which of the following would NOT fall under Section A?" Section A (the a, b, c) are about exits and egress: a) exit placement, b) clear paths, c) railings for exits. Now the options:
- A: Smoking area 20ft from building – this is a measure to keep the area around the building (and exits) safe, so related to egress safety.
- B: Avoid flammable objects – fire safety, which is crucial for egress (preventing fire from blocking exits).
- C: Indicate egress options with evacuation map – this is about communicating egress routes, which is a different type of measure than the physical exit - related measures in Section A (placement, clear paths, railings).
- D: Use fireproof fabrics – fire safety, related to protecting the building and egress ro…
