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.
Provide fire protection and life safety in heliports with essential provisions in NFPA 418, Standard for Heliports.
NFPA 418, Standard for Heliports, is essential for code officials and facility managers in settings such hospitals where additions or modifications could dramatically impact the safety of patients and health care or aircraft personnel. The fire service relies on NFPA 418 for pre-incident planning, with provisions concerning firefighting access points, egress routes, and fixed fire protection systems, as well as aircraft refueling equipment.
This standard establishes minimum fire safety requirements for operation at heliports for the protection of people and property. Engineers, designers, contractors, and installers need these vital requirements to ensure a minimum level of safety in all types of heliports or helipads, including those in hospitals, airports, offshore platforms, and tourist attractions.
Facilities and equipment covered include:
Fire alarm systems
Foam protection systems, standpipe systems, and water supply
General requirements for land-based facilities, including egress systems
Helicopter refueling equipment and fuel storage tanks
Offshore heliports
Portable fire extinguishers
Rooftop hangars
Rooftop landing facilities
New in the 2021 edition:
Several foam requirements are changed, including the duration of foam discharge for hose line systems from 2 minutes to 10 minutes.
A new requirement in Chapter 5 allows for manual firefighting equipment, as approved by the AHJ.
There\'s a new reserved chapter for vertiports and vertistops. The technical committee will request public input during the next revision cycle so that stakeholders can help create the specific requirements.
