Foreword
This part of BS 5588 has been prepared by Technical Committee FSH/14.
It supersedes BS 5588-5:1991, which is withdrawn.
This new edition represents a retitling and full revision of the standard, and
introduces the following principal changes:
a) new recommendations for vehicle access, water supplies, fire control centre,
drawings for fire service use and smoke control;
b) removal of all recommendations relating to fire-fighting lifts that are now
covered in BS EN 81-72;
c) updating of recommendations to reflect new regulations and changes in
practice since the previous edition.
It has been assumed in the preparation of this part of BS 5588 that the execution
of its provisions will be entrusted to appropriately qualified and experienced
people, for whose use it has been produced.
As a code of practice, this part of BS 5588 takes the form of guidance and
recommendations. It should not be quoted as if it were a specification and
particular care should be taken to ensure that claims of compliance are not
misleading.
This publication does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a
contract. Users are responsible for its correct application.
Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity
from legal obligations.
Summary of pages
