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.

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.
