Class I standpipes are prohibited in which facilities according to the material?

Class I standpipes are designed for use by professional firefighters and provide a 2.5-inch hose connection fed by a strong water supply. Because they’re intended for trained personnel, some facilities restrict or prohibit their installation to prevent unauthorized use and to ensure compatibility with the facility’s fire protection design and security considerations. In the material you’re studying, DoD facilities prohibit Class I standpipes, so that is the setting where they’re not allowed. Hospitals, schools, and residential buildings follow other standpipe configurations or rely on different fire protection approaches, and aren’t indicated as prohibited in the material. This distinction helps explain why the policy specific to DoD facilities is the focus of the question.
