By what height are all office buildings required to install sprinkler systems according to the updated regulations?

The requirement for the installation of sprinkler systems in office buildings is based on safety regulations aimed at protecting life and property. According to the updated regulations, all office buildings that exceed a certain height must be equipped with a sprinkler system to ensure adequate fire protection. The specific height set by the regulations is 100 feet. This regulation is implemented to address the increased risk and potential challenges associated with fighting fires in taller structures, which can complicate access for firefighting operations and evacuation of occupants. By mandating that buildings over this height have sprinkler systems installed, it enhances fire safety and helps minimize the risk of fire spread, ultimately ensuring better protection for occupants and property.
