A fire division wall is made of non-combustible materials and fully divides a space. If the roof deck is made of wood, the non-combustible materials must extend at least 18 inches over the roof deck (parapet). There may be openings in a fire division, however, there must be doors for these openings. The doors must be fire rated so the fire doesn't blow through one fire division to the other.

It is a 1 1/2 hour fire rated door embedded along a 2 hour fire rated wall that creates an exit to safety inside of a building. Codes give maximum travel distances to get to safety, i.e. to exit a building. However, some buildings are so large (Casino's, Hotels, Convention Centers) that it is impossible to get someone out of the facility within the maximum distance.
