Reference Guide

of 80

New Process – Quick Reference Guide For additional information on the Regulations visit: www.nfpa.org/Regs

There are only three actions a TC can take at the First Draft (ROP)

meeting: 1. Resolve a Public Input (no change to the document) 2. Create a First Revision (change to the document) 3. Create Committee Input

Resolve Public Input (no change to the document)

TC must provide a response (Committee Statement/CS) to ALL Public Input (proposal).

CS for not doing what is suggested

Sample Motion: “I make a motion to resolve PI#_ with the following committee statement__.” Approval by meeting vote (simple majority). Not subject to Ballot.

Create a First Revision (change to the document)

TC must create a First Revision (FR) for each change they wish to make to the document, either using Public Input for the basis of the change or not using a Public Input for the basis. One or more Public Input can be considered for the FR.

All Public Input requires a response

TC can use a Public Input for basis i. Sample Motion: “I make a motion to revise section __ using PI#_ as the

basis for change.” Approval by meeting vote (simple majority) and final approval through ballot.

TC develops revision without a Public Input for basis i. Sample Motion: “I make a motion to revise section __ as follows___.”

Approval by meeting vote (simple majority) and final approval through ballot.

First Revisions require a committee statement

Committee Input

TC may create a Committee Input (CI). This replaces the old system “rejected” Committee Proposals. CIs will get printed in the report but will not be balloted or shown as a change in the draft. CIs are used to solicit public comments and/or as a placeholder for the comment stage.

i. Sample Motion: “I make a motion to create a CI with a proposed revision to section__ as follows___.” Approval by meeting vote (simple majority). Not subject to ballot.

Requires a committee statement to explain the intent of making a CI.

Public Input No. 21-NFPA 801-2016 [ New Section after 3.3.27 ]

3.3.28* Qualified Fire Protection Engineer.

A fire protection engineer with a combination of one or more of the following minimum education,experiences, or professional registration/license, plus three years of responsible in charge experience inthe field of fire protection specific to the types of facilities within the scope of this standard: 1) A graduateof an approved fire protection engineering curriculum, or 2) Be registered or licensed by a state or localauthority in fire protection engineering, or 3) Demonstrate fire protection engineering knowledge andexperiences and provide evidence of qualifications acceptable to the authority having jurisdiction.


A fire hazard analysis is required by Section 4.2.6 to be prepared or under the supervision of a qualified fire protection engineer. However, the standard does not define what a qualified fire protection engineer is and the result could be of disastrous consequences when considering the seriousness of fire involving facilities handing radioactive materials. Defining what constitutes a qualified fire protection engineer will result in safer accomplishment of the standards objectives when a qualified fire protection engineer is specified by the standard.

5.8* Interior Finish.

5.8.1 *

Interior wall and ceiling finish in areas processing or storing radioactive materials shall have aflame spread index of not more than 25 and a smoke development index of not more than 450,in accordance with ASTM E 84, Standard Test Method for Surface Burning Characteristics ofBuilding Materials, or ANSI/UL 723, Standard for Test for Surface Burning Characteristics ofBuilding Materials or shall coimply with 5 .8.2.

5.8.2

Interior wall and finish shall comply with all of the following when tested using the test protocolof NFPA 286:

(1) During the 40 kW exposure, flames shall not spread to the ceiling.

(2) The flame shall not spread to the outer extremity of the sample on any wall or ceiling.

(3) Flashover, as described in NFPA 286, shall not occur.

(4) The peak heat release rate throughout the test shall not exceed 800 kW.

(5) The total smoke released throughout the test shall not exceed 10,764 ft 2 (1000 m 2 ).

5.8.3

Interior floor finish in areas processing or storing radioactive materials shall be characterized by

a critical radiant flux not less than 0.45 W/cm2 in accordance with NFPA 253, Standard Methodof Test for Critical Radiant Flux of Floor Covering Systems Using a Radiant Heat EnergySource, or ASTM E 648, Standard Test Method for Critical Radiant Flux of Floor-CoveringSystems Using a Radiant Heat Energy Source.


The revision provides an alternate method for approval of interior wall and ceiling materials. The alternate method (NFPA 286) is a room-corner fire test and has been shown to be able to adequately assess the fire performance of many more interior finish materials than ASTM E84, the Steiner tunnel test. When interior finish materials are appropriately tested using ASTM E84, the results of both tests correlate well in terms of pass or fail criteria. The proposed new annex note explains this also.

It is just a case I am having right now with outside EU supplier for fire protection of NPP inside EU, that has its own codes, standards and practice. I recommend using NFPA, which are the highest in details source of requirements, but yet not precise enough to persuade specialists who know better.

For international projects outside US with engineers like me-using NFPA as an important source- it is crucial during negotiations with technology supplier to demand the best technology available.

It is very important to say that all areas of the plant must be covered by manual fire fighting. In potenttial international supplier point of view a current 801 standard wording means to cover with some fire means all types of areas of the plant.For design engineers who know how it should be-it means to cover all areas of the plant with water coming from manual fire fighting (respective hydrant hose distance with water streems/hoses lenght overlapping) without any exceptions.

7.10 Alternative Methods

7.10.1 Alternative methods to address specific facility, process, and special hazards addressedby this chapter are permitted when justified by a comprehensive fire hazards analysis asspecified in 4.2 and approved by the authority having jurisdiction.


As the standard currently reads, anyone who claims to be a qualified fire protection engineer could determine the safety controls for facilities, processes and special hazards handling radioactive materials without AHJ concurrence resulting in catastrophic consequences to the public. Consistent with other comments made for Chapter 7 (specifying the minimum requirements and safety controls for facilities, processes and special hazards handling radioactive materials), this proposed section would permit alternative fire protection methods when justified by a fire hazard analysis prepared by a qualified fire protection engineer that is approved by the authority having jurisdiction.

Public Input No. 62-NFPA 801-2017 [ Section No. A.3.3.25 ]

A.3.3.25 Noncombustible Material.

The three terms used to describe the combustibility of materials — noncombustible, limited-combustible, and combustible — have are based on specific definitions criteria . Whenattempting to classify the combustibility of a material, ensure that the definitions of all criteriafor classifying a material based on any of the three terms are thoroughly understood. (SeeNFPA 220, Standard on Types of Building Construction.

Materials that do not comply with the criteria for either noncombustible materials or for limitedcombustible materials are considered combustible.

Materials that are reported as passing ASTM E 136 E136 , Standard Test Method for Behaviorof Materials in a Vertical Tube Furnace at 750°C, are considered noncombustible materials.

The following are the criteria used in NFPA 101, Life Safety Code and in NFPA 220,Standardon Types of Building Construction, for a material to be classified as a limited-combustiblematerial. A limitedd combustible material is a material not complying with the definition ofnoncombustible material that, in the form in which it is used, has a potential heat value notexceeding 8141 kJ/kg (3500 Btu/lb) where tested in accordance with NFPA 259, Standard TestMethod for Potential Heat of Building Materials, and complies with (1) or (2):

(1) Materials having a structural base of noncombustible material, with a surfacing notexceeding a thickness of 3.2 mm (1⁄8 in.) that have a flame spread index not greater than 50,when tested in accordance with ASTM E84;

(2) Materials that, in the form and thickness used, other than described in (1), have neither aflame spread index greater than 25, when tested in accordance with ASTM E84, nor exhibitevidence of continued progressive combustion and are of such composition that surfaces thatwould be exposed by cutting through the material on any plane would have neither a flamespread index greater than 25 nor exhibit evidence of continued progressive combustion, whentested in accordance with ASTM E84 or UL 723.

Materials subject to increase in combustibility or flame spread index beyond the limitsestablished above through the effects of age, moisture, or other atmospheric condition areconsidered combustible.


This public input proposes to move all the information regarding limited combustible materials from section A.5.8 to the section (A.3.3.25) which discusses noncombustible materials and limited combustible materials instead of section 5.8 where simply flame spread or similar properties is being discussed and not whether a material is or is not combustible, limited combustible or noncombustible. The criteria proposed to be added are the same as those originally in A.5.8. The slight changes in language are simply to clarify that this is not a definition for limited combustible but the criteria contained in the 2015 edition of NFPA 101 and to make the language more consistent with NFPA 101 or NFPA 220.The public input also makes slight changes to the existing language so as to make it clear that these are issues of criteria for classification and adds a sentence regarding combustible materials.

Just for information, the 2018 edition of NFPA 101 will most likely contain an additional option to determine what is a limited combustible material (based on ASTM E2965) and that may be proposed in a public comment after NFPA 101-2018 is approved later this year.

Public Input No. 36-NFPA 801-2016 [ Section No. A.4.2 ]

A.4.2

A fire hazards analysis, in the context used in this standard, should serve as an evaluation toolfor design and therefore should include a goal-oriented approach, particularly when discussingtopics when there are no deterministic requirements in this standard. The evaluation shouldaddress goals and objectives that include the following:

(1) Nuclear safety goal. The nuclear safety goal should be to provide assurance thatradioactive materials be maintained in a safe and stable condition in the event of a fire.

(2) Radioactive and hazardous material release goal. The radioactive and hazardous materialrelease goal should be to provide reasonable assurance that a fire will not result in therelease of radiological or hazardous material that adversely affects the public, plantpersonnel, or the environment.

(3) Life safety goal. The life safety goal should be to provide reasonable assurance that lossof life in the event of fire will be prevented for facility occupants.

(4) Nuclear safety objectives. In the event of a fire during any operational mode and processconfiguration, the nuclear safety objectives should be as follows:

(5) Reactivity control — capable of achieving and maintaining subcritical conditions

(6) Cooling — capable of achieving and maintaining decay heat removal

(7) Fission product boundary — capable of maintaining fundamental fuel geometry

(8) Heat transfer medium inventory control — capable of maintaining the necessaryquantity of heat transfer medium

(9) Prevent subcritical fissionable material from becoming critical by the introduction ofwater and concurrent violation, with safe separation of subcritical masses

(10) Maintain monitoring of safety functions

(11) Radioactive and hazardous material release objective. The radiological and hazardousmaterial release objective should be to prevent exposure, uncontrolled release, orunacceptable dispersion of hazardous substances, nuclear material, or radioactivematerial, due to fires.

(12) Life safety objectives. The life safety objectives should be to protect occupants not intimatewith the initial fire development from loss of life, improve the survivability of those who areintimate with the fire development, and provide protection for emergency personnel and thepersonnel required to carry out manual actions to achieve the nuclear safety objectives.

(13) Objectives to address the Purpose. The fire hazard analysis should arrive at a conclusion thateither the facility meets fire protection objectives necessary to address this standards purpose or itdoes not meet the objectives with implementation of actions necessary to meet fire protectionobjectives.

(14) Individual Fire Areas . The premise of the fire hazard analysis should be that fire wouldbe contained within individual fire areas of the facility consisting of areas bounded by firerated construction, unless analytical deterministic modeling methods or calculations,recognized by the authority having jurisdiction, can demonstrate a less or greater firepotential.

Proposed is to add additional explanatory material focusing on the fire hazard analysis to address the purpose of the standard to protect the safety of the public, facility personnel, and the environment from the effects of fire or explosions on radiological and other hazardous materials at facilities handling radioactive materials with a premise of fire containment within rated construction unless the fire hazard analysis demonstrates a lessor or greater fire. This is not currently conveyed in the standard.

A.5.8.2 The alternate fire test method in this section (NFPA 286) is a room-corner fire test and ithas been shown to be applicable to many more interior finish materials than ASTM E84, theSteiner tunnel test, for assessing their fire performance. When interior finish materials areappropriately tested using ASTM E84, the results of both tests correlate well in terms of pass orfail criteria.

Limited-combustible is defined as follows: A material not complying with the definition ofnoncombustible material that, in the form in which it is used, has a potential heat value notexceeding 8141 kJ/kg (3500 Btu/lb) where tested in accordance with NFPA 259, Standard TestMethod for Potential Heat of Building Materials , and complies with (1) or (2): (1) Materialshaving a structural base of noncombustible material, with a surfacing not exceeding a thickness

of 3.2 mm ( 1 ⁄ 8 in.) that have a flame spread index not greater than 50; (2) materials, in theform and thickness used, other than described in (1), having neither a flame spread indexgreater than 25 nor evidence of continued progressive combustion and of such compositionthat surfaces that would be exposed by cutting through the material on any plane would haveneither a flame spread index greater than 25 nor evidence of continued progressivecombustion. (Materials subject to increase in combustibility or flame spread index beyond thelimits herein established through the effects of age, moisture, or other atmospheric conditionare considered combustible.)


The information on limited combustible material is not appropriate here and should be added to the annex note to A.3.3.25, which is where limited combustible material is being discussed.
