Note: this standard does not apply to theatres, cinemas, opera houses and similar venues, and provisions for media facilities are excluded.
Key Topics and Requirements
- Scope and terminology: Defines key terms such as viewing area, activity area, service area, vomitory, sightline, design capacity and flow capacity to ensure consistent design language.

- Electrical and emergency systems:
- Requirements for electrical installations to minimize fire risk and ensure circuit segregation.
- Emergency lighting: minimum 5 lx along exit routes (1 m above floor); recommended 10 lx for spectator visual comfort; endurance requirements (e.g., emergency lighting 60 min).
- Safety power supply and battery charger provisions with defined minimum endurance for alarms and firefighting systems.
- Spectator control and safety devices:
- CCTV systems for monitoring viewing areas, passageways and entrances with night-time recognition capability.
- Public address systems, auxiliary power, scoreboards and orientation/wayfinding provisions.
- Viewing area design:
- Detailed requirements for seating places (individual seats, benches, stepped seating) and standing places (steps and sloped terraces).
- Design of places for spectators with special needs and gangways, vomitories, rows and blocks for good circulation and sightlines.
- Capacity and flows:
- Methods to determine design capacity and flow capacity of exits.
- Consideration of loads, dynamic actions and sightline geometry.
- Annexes: practical examples, distance of vision, classification of sports areas, roof coverings and flow capacity illustrations.
