NFPA Glossary of Terms

Hello there. We have received an email from NFPA just minutes ago with their pdf version of the NFPA Glosary of Terms 2014 Edition.

As per the email:

"The GOT is a list of the defined terms in all of NFPA's published codes, standards, guides and recommended practices. The terms are listed alphabetically and assembled into a free PDF available on the NFPA website. The document is used in a number of ways. It helps NFPA Technical Committees who are looking to define new terms or compare existing terms. It also helps members of the public who are interested in learning about how NFPA documents define specific terms."

Here is the link...enjoy!
