Important note : All end users must be registered with an Account prior to user licenses being assigned.This Standard sets minimum requirements for the design of smoke control systems in large single compartments in which smoke accumulates in a smoke reservoir. It sets minimum requirements considered necessary to meet the system design objectives in terms of continuous operation over a specified time period under a specified fire condition. The design information given in This Standard is based on axisymmetric plumes. Compartments and smoke reservoirs are designed separately and spill plumes between compartments/reservoirs are not considered. Application of this Standard is not appropriate in situations where a stable buoyant hot layer does not exist.

This Standard sets minimum requirements for the design of smoke control systems in large single compartments in which smoke accumulates in a smoke reservoir. It sets minimum requirements considered necessary to meet the system design objectives in terms of continuous operation over a specified time period under a specified fire condition.The design information given in this Standard is based on axisymmetric plumes. Compartments and smoke reservoirs are designed separately and spill plumes between compartments/reservoirs are not considered.This Standard is not appropriate in situations where a stable buoyant hot layer does not exist.NOTES: 1 Smoke control in multi-compartment buildings is covered in AS/NZS 1668.1.2 This Standard should only be applied to areas with greater than 3 m floor to ceiling or upper bounding layer height.3 AS 1851.5 and AS/NZS 1851.6 outline management procedures for maintaining smoke and heat vents and the fire and smoke control features of air-handling systems.
