Hard Surface is a drive surface of concrete, asphalt, or pavers designed to support vehicles in excess of 50,000 pounds GVW under any weather condition.

Hose Lay is the extension of a hand held fire hose as it is extended around the perimeter of the structure. If the hose lay is more than 200 feet from the road to all portions of the exterior, an Operational Platform is required.

Mod-13D is a modified 13D residential fire sprinkler system. The system is a modified 13D for additional structural protection with the installation of “pilot heads” inside the attic area, patios and porches.  The pilot heads are to be located at the “peak” of the attic, spaced at 100 sq. ft. minimum distance between heads.  The pilot heads shall be hydraulically calculated for small orifice, quick response commercial sprinkler heads.  When any of the
requirements that initiate the Mod-13D specifications exist, the covered patios and porches shall be included as a protected area.

Operational Platform is an area located on site where the emergency vehicle is staged while performing emergency medical or fire fighting operations. The platform shall be 20 feet by 30 feet with a maximum cross grade of 5 percent. Operational platforms are required when a drive or adjacent street grade is greater than 12% slope or the hose lay from the truck staging area to all portions of the exterior of the structure are greater than 200 feet.

Person is a natural person, heirs, executors, administrators or assigns, and also includes a firm, partnership or corporation, its or their successors or assigns, or the agent of any of the aforesaid.

Slope is the ground, road or other surface that forms a natural or artificial incline. The percentage of slope is determined by dividing the rise by the horizontal run multiplied by 100 [% slope = (Rise/Run) X 100].

Turn-a-round is required for emergency vehicles when the structure is more than 200 feet from the road. This can be accomplished with a circle drive with an outside radius of 40’6”, T-Type hammer head 16’ X 76’, or a variation there of. 

Turn-out is required on all extended driveways 300 feet or greater in length to a single residence. A turnout shall widen to 20 feet minimum width over minimum length of 45 feet.

Drive Length is measured from the entrance of the drive to the structure.

Drive Width is measured from the edges of the designated improved drivable surface. 2-12-2 and 2-16-2, is a 2 foot clear AW surface on both sides of a 12 or 16 foot hard surface drive.

      Grade is the degree of inclination of a slope, road, or other surface (see slope).

Hard Surface is a drive surface of concrete, asphalt, or pavers designed to support vehicles in excess of 75,000 pounds GVW under any weather condition.

Hose Lay is the extension of a hand held fire hose as it is extended around the perimeter of the structure. If the hose lay is more than 200 feet from the road to all portions of the exterior, an Operational Platform is required.

Operational Platform is an area located on site where the emergency vehicle is staged while performing emergency medical or fire fighting operations. The platform shall be 20 feet by 30 feet with a maximum cross grade of 5 percent. Operational platforms are required when a drive or adjacent street grade is greater than 12% slope or the hose lay from the truck staging area to all portions of the exterior of the structure are greater than 200 feet.

Person is a natural person, heirs, executors, administrators or assigns, and also includes a firm, partnership or corporation, its or their successors or assigns, or the agent of any of the aforesaid.

Slope is the ground, road or other surface that forms a natural or artificial incline. The percentage of slope is determined by dividing the rise by the horizontal run multiplied by 100 [% slope = (Rise/Run) X 100].

Turn-a-round is required for emergency vehicles when the structure is more than 200 feet from the road. This can be accomplished with a circle drive with an outside radius of 40’6”, T-Type hammer head 16’ X 76’, or a variation there of.

903.2.7.4.2  Determination of Requirements:  To determine specific fire service feature requirements for Urban Wildland Interface areas based upon access grades to the structure or parcel, Table 9-33(e) shall be used.

      903.2.7.1 Group R, Division 3 Occupancies South of and immediately adjacent to the centerline of Dixileta Road alignment and East of the Agua Fria River. Residential sprinklers shall be installed in Group R, Division 3 occupancies when the FIRE AREA square footage is five thousand (5000) square feet or greater. An R-3 designated occupancy by the enclosure of existing patios, porches, entry ways, or by the addition of new enclosed space increases the total square footage of the Fire Area as defined in this Code to Five Thousand (5,000) square feet or greater.  

Exception: Residential sprinklers shall be permitted to be omitted from Group R, Division 3 occupancies when the FIRE AREA square footage is less than five (5000) square feet. As long as the required fire flows in accordance with Section 5-Fire Flow Requirements For Buildings and Table A-III-A-1 Minimum Required Fire Flow and Flow Duration For Buildings is met.

If the fire flows can not be met, a residential sprinkler system shall be installed.
