Illuminating
Stairwell Signs
|
There have been several recent changes to the 2012 Life Safety Code that will add to the responsibilities of facility managers in maintaining LSC compliance.
One specific requirement is the change to stairwell identification signs for buildings over 3 stories.
According to the updated Life Safety Code* and NFPA standards, all stairwell signs will need the following:
• Illumination that meets ASTM E2072/E2073**
• Minimum size of 12” x 18”
• Tactile letters***
• Non-glare
• EXIT discharge directions.
• Braille***
These new changes will render current stairwell signs noncompliant,
and there will be no grandfathering of existing signs.
