9.9.10.1. Egress Windows or Doors for Bedrooms
Unless a dwelling unit is sprinklered, or a bedroom has a doorway to the exterior, every bedroom or combination bedroom must be provided with at least one outside window or exterior door that can be opened from the inside without the use of tools to provide an emergency means of escape or rescue from bedrooms. These windows must have an unobstructed open portion having a minimum area of 0.35 m2 (3.8 ft.2) with no dimension less than 380 mm (15 in.) (Figure 9.9.-13). For sliding windows, the minimum dimension applies to the openable portion of the window.
