Get up to speed with the latest fire and life safety requirements with NFPA 1, Fire Code. The hazards and challenges of preventing, preparing for, and fighting fire and related dangers are continually evolving. NFPA 1, Fire Code, 2021 edition, offers the most current and complete information for advancing public and first responder safety and reducing the loss of life and property. Widely referenced throughout North America, this vital document is based on over 130 relevant NFPA codes and standards. NFPA 1 offers a comprehensive, integrated approach to fire code regulation and hazard management, covering everything from fire alarms and sprinkler systems to building and process hazards and life safety issues. The 2021 edition is revised to account for cutting-edge industry knowledge, practices, trends, and technologies. Fire marshals, code officials, inspectors, facility owners and managers, and others responsible for building and life safety rely on NFPA 1 to help eliminate risks and maintain compliance. The code features references and extracts from other NFPA documents such as NFPA 101, Life Safety Code; NFPA 72, National Fire Alarm and Signaling Code; NFPA 54, National Fuel Gas Code, and many more
