I wonder that there should be a certain fire separation distance between Class A areas and other factories and structures; so what if one needs to enter a pipe gallery?

There must be a certain fire protection distance between Class A areas and other structures; if a pipe rack needs to lead into a Class A room, what should be done if it is not possible to ensure such a fire protection distance? Is there any legal basis for this?
Could you be more specific? What types of fluids are carried by the pipes in the utility tunnel, and how many pipes are there?
There are water pipes, steam pipes, gas pipes, air ducts, etc.; it is a small boiler room
Do you mean building a utility tunnel inside a Class A factory building? In that case, it’s sufficient as long as the fire and heat resistance rating of the ductwork meets the requirements for Class A buildings; there’s no need for fire separation distances within the same fire compartment! Seeking advice
I agree with you; within the same area
Bro, are you in the design field? Is there any company where you work or that you know of which requires a chemical industry certification? I took the exam for such a certification last year and now I have it; however, my current employer doesn’t need it either: lol

Okay, thank you :victory:
