what do you mean by habitual room??
Inquiring about a means of escape from a habitual room to a dwelling.
Had a good read through some parts of the Part B Regs, but cannot find a part about this.
Is it possible to install a door or a window to a room in such a way that the door or window leads to a fire corridor & not to an external roof.

Hi PJPII
Off the top of my head, in general windows should be designed to offer an alternative means of escape from inner rooms.
An inner room means one room accessed through another, but that's not necessarily a room without windows.
If the room has no windows then you need to look at ways of increasing safety or installing a better alarm.
Pope - Do you have a professional working on this design for you? I'm just wondering how you plan to ensure compliance with Parts A-M of the building regs without a design professional.
Complainer, my query is in relation to Part B of the Building Regulations
Yep, I aware of that. I'm just wondering why your professional designer isn't addressing this problem for you. And if you don't have a professional designer, I'm wondering how you hope to ensure compliance with all the other building regs.
