2016 edition of NFPA 14 section 6.1.2.2.4 says "where additional standpipes are 
needed to meet travel distance requirements in non-high-rise buildings, 
protection of piping is not required."

Is that intended to apply to standpipes near horizontal exits also? If they 
were closer to the stairs, they would not be needed. So technically they are 
there in order to meet travel distance requirements... so, no fire rated 
enclosure required?
