Technical regulation "General Requirements to Fire Safety"

Chapter 1. Scope

1. This Technical regulation "General Requirements to Fire Safety" (further - the Technical regulation) is developed according to the laws of the Republic of Kazakhstan "About civil protection", "About technical regulation", "About architectural, town-planning and construction activities in the Republic of Kazakhstan".

2. The technical regulation determines basic provisions of technical regulation in the field of fire safety and establishes:

1) classification of the fires and their dangerous factors, substances and materials, and also technology circles by fire and explosion and fire risk, explosive and fire hazardous zones, construction materials on fire risk, building constructions and fire-proof barriers, electric equipment, outside installations, buildings, constructions and rooms on fire and explosion and fire risk which is given in appendix 1 to this Technical regulation;

2) requirements of fire safety to subjects to managing of different function at all stages of their lifecycle, when designing residential and rural locations, designing and construction of buildings and constructions.

3. Provisions of this Technical regulation are obligatory for execution during the designing, construction, capital repairs, reconstruction of capital construction projects, modernization, change of functional purpose, maintenance, operation of objects, irrespective of appointment and patterns of ownership.

4. Concerning objects of special purpose, including military objects, objects of conversion, storage radioactive and explosives and materials, subjects to destruction and storage of chemical weapon and blasting agents, land space objects and starting complexes, objects of excavations, along with this Technical regulation the requirements of fire safety established by departmental regulatory legal acts of the Republic of Kazakhstan shall be observed.

Chapter 2. Terms and determinations

5. In this Technical regulation the following terms and determinations are applied:

1) estimated time of evacuation of people - time interval from the moment of the notification of people about the fire until completion of evacuation of people from the building, construction in zone with lack of dangerous factors of the fire in case of the set space-planning and constructive solutions of ways of evacuation;

2) emergency exit - exit (door, the hatch) conducting on the way of evacuation, directly outside or in zone with lack of dangerous factors of the fire which is used as additional exit for rescue of people, but is not considered in case of assessment of conformity of necessary quantity and the sizes of evacuation ways and exits to conditions of safe evacuation of people in case of the fire;

3) automatic gas station - the stationary gas station, technology system to which it is intended for filling of vehicles with liquid motor fuel and is characterized by underground arrangement of reservoirs and automated (without participation of the operator) leave of oil products through fuel-dispensing columns;

4) decay - flameless burning;

5) building height (for evacuation and rescuing) - difference of marks from the surface of the carriageway of the transportation, next to the building, to mark of floor of upper floor (including mansard), apart from the upper technical floor (floors). Height of the building located on the parcels of land with bias or with several drives is determined by difference of marks of the lower level of planning mark or the lower level of journey and level of floor of upper floor;

6) temperature limits of distribution of flame (ignition) - substance temperatures at which its saturated steam forms in the oxidizing circle the concentration equal according to lower (the lower temperature limit) and upper (the upper temperature limit) to concentration limits of distribution of flame;

7) the normal speed of distribution of flame - the speed of movement of the flame front of rather not burned down gas in the direction, perpendicular to its surface;

8) the lower (upper) concentration limit of distribution of flame - the minimum (maximum) content of combustible substance in homogeneous mix with the oxidizing circle in case of which distribution of flame on mix on any distance from ignition source is possible;
