Each student will perform an individual fire inspection based on a facility of your choice

(suggest not making an overly complex building; you are welcome to choose a building on

campus). Do not use company names and make 100% sure you have permission to do this

activity at the site you choose: Students performing building inspections MUST respect the

privacy of the occupants. Students may not enter any area designated for use by the

opposite sex. Let them know this is an academic exercise ONLY. The assignment and

discussion questions are designed to address individual elements of the fire inspection final

document; assess features of public safety such as fire doors, components of egress, and

document any hazards witnessed, etc.. Please keep in mind that every occupancy is unique and

you will need to use your judgment as to whether or not the specific element applies to your

individualized situation or jurisdiction. Your fire inspection must follow model code standards of

your choice (e.g., NFPA 1/NFPA 101, IFC/IBC, etc.). Thus, it is important that you become

familiar with the model code standards presented in this class.
