Content Description Per NFPA's requirements, when purchasing NFPA 2021 Standards and/or 2020 NFPA 70 (NEC), you must subscribe to at least one more NFPA Standard to complete your purchase. In order to fulfill this requirement, we automatically add 2019 NFPA 900 to your cart. This title may be removed during checkout if you choose to add a different NFPA standard to your cart, and pricing will be recalculated accordingly.
Apply the updated edition of NFPA 101A, Guide on Alternative Approaches to Life Safety, to correctly determine equivalencies and avoid dangerous and costly errors.
Be prepared to confidently determine equivalencies — or evaluate if something maintains an adequate level of life safety — with the latest edition of NFPA 101A, Guide on Alternative Approaches to Life Safety. Essential for facility managers, inspectors, and code enforcers, NFPA 101A is used alongside NFPA 101®, Life Safety Code®, to facilitate equivalency requests using numerically based fire safety evaluation systems (FSESs). Mandatory values in each FSES reflect the requirements of the 2021 edition of NFPA 101.
NFPA 101A, Guide on Alternative Approaches to Life Safety, provides FSESs for a wide range of occupancy types. Each chapter presents a different system and includes the following occupancies:
Health care
Residential board and care
Detention and correctional
Business
Educational
NFPA 101A, Guide on Alternative Approaches to Life Safety, has seen numerous updates for the 2022 edition, including the following:
Changes for mandatory safety values in the various fire safety evaluation systems
Recognition of a 12-year compliance window for automatic sprinkler systems in existing high-rise buildings containing health care occupancies
Revised numerical FSES scoring models to reflect the changes in the 2021 edition of NFPA 101, Life Safety Code

Timesaving forms for recording building and life safety features
Related worksheets
