NFPA 80A is a
guideline, not a mandatory code. It is classified as a
Recommended Practice, meaning it offers expert advice and best practices for protecting buildings from exterior fire exposures but is not legally enforceable unless adopted by a jurisdiction.
NFPA 80A supports fire safety planning by helping professionals design safer building layouts and minimize the risk of fire spread between structures. For those involved in construction, fire safety, or code compliance, having the latest edition is essential. You can get the official NFPA 80A standard at
