DIVISION I
General
Art. SG 1 - Institutions subject
1 - The provisions of this chapter apply to structures whose walls and cover are made in whole or in part, supported by a flexible envelope of air introduced under pressure either directly or through frames inflatable and whatever the size of the public received.
2 - The inflatables must not shelter the premises or the following facilities:
- Including performance spaces below or scenery of category M 2, M 3 or M 4;
- Installation of cinema projection using appliances with an arc lamp is not installed in a sealed balloon without gas exchange with the outside.
- Space reserved for sleep;
- Local libraries and archives;
- Classrooms (excluding sports facilities);
- Health facilities;
- Permanent office.
In addition, the inflatable should not house activities involving the presence of a heat potential exceeding 250 MJ/m2 average, or 400 MJ/m2 locally.
3 - The provisions of Books I and II of the safety regulations are applicable with the exception of Articles CO and DF. However, items relating to CO clearances apply.
Art. SG 2 - Calculation of the effective
The maximum permitted public is determined using the method of calculation for each type of activity envisaged for establishments covered. However, the maximum number permissible shall not exceed one person per square meter.
Art. SG 3 - Implantation
1 - The inflatable structures must be located in areas with no risk of ignition fast.
To the extent that these structures can accommodate over 300 people, they should not be separated by more than 200 meters from a water point ensuring a minimum flow of 60 cubic meters per hour for 1 hour at least. If these conditions can not be met, a fire department have sufficient hydraulic means must be established.
2 - A security perimeter, with a minimum width of one meter should be materialized (excluding access) by barriers, ropes, etc.. This area must be accompanied by a prohibition from entering, clearly identified to avoid being undermined the integrity of the structure and its equipment (shell, anchors, tunnels, etc..).
3 - All measures must be taken, particularly when the ground is sloped to ensure stability of the building against various risks (runoff, oil leakage, etc..).
4 - The inflatable structure must be located in more than:
4 meters from another institution if both institutions are common risks; 8 feet of another establishment if one of the two institutions is at particular risk.
These distances are measured horizontally from the foot of the inflatable structure.
If, exceptionally, in certain cases, these conditions can be met, the safety commission determines equivalent isolation measures.
