Now architects have a visual reference to help them design code-compliant buildings--NFPA®'s Designer's Illustrated Guide to NFPA 101®.

This helpful reference is based on the 2006 Life Safety Code®, and is a fully illustrated color manual that incorporates Code compliance into the overall design process. But while the Life Safety Code Handbook interprets the Code through commentary and explanations, this book instead uses more than 500 drawings, with a focus on basic code intent as design criteria.. 464 pp.

Written by an architect for architects, the Guide approaches meeting Code from a whole new perspective!
The detailed drawings in this publication are supplemented by concise captions that provide technical and practical advice. Each chapter addresses a different type of occupancy and includes:

• A table of contents
• Author's notes, tips, and alerts that highlight important issues to help you avoid mistakes
• A list of topics covered by the design requirements
• Useful LSC definitions that clarify terminology
• Pertinent Code references for further research
