For most architects and engineers who deal with life safety compliance on a regular basis, the main "distance" requirements in a building are quite familiar. Most folks in the life safety world can tell you that the common path limit for business occupancies is 100 feet or that the travel distance limit for assembly occupancies is 250 feet, without needing to refer to the code.
But I've also found that certain occupancies are less common in my day to day project work (do you know the Group H-5 travel distance limit off the top of your head)?? So whether you're just starting out in the world of life safety or you've been doing it for years, hopefully you find this cheat sheet helpful!
