Description

This groundbreaking new book offers fire inspectors, building code officials, and anyone in the field of building inspections a valuable resource that goes beyond understanding the codes to actually teaching how to enforce them. From filing charges for noncompliance to obtaining inspection search warrants to closing unsafe structures, inspectors today need to have effective documentation tools and skills to pursue fire code violators in an appropriate manner, but are often required to do so with minimal legal training. In response to this, The Fire Inspector's Guide was developed to provide inspectors with a comprehensive set of the notices, letters, complaints and other documents that are critical to the effective enforcement of today’s most common problems and violations of the International Fire Code.

Fire Inspector's Guide to Codes, Forms, and Complaints is also ideal for municipal attorneys who can use the included forms to draft legal documents. This book provides all the forms necessary to keep reporting accurate, consistent, and efficient.

Features:

Tables and diagrams assist you in understanding the various codes.
Forms are universal in approach so even if an inspector's municipality does not use the International Fire Code, forms can be adopted for local use.
Checklists remind inspectors of key procedures and information, providing cases with a better chance of remaining strong in court.
Need-to-know information is well-organized, making this a handy reference no inspector will want to work without.
Assists inspectors in being able to submit work that is correct and uniform, saving time and preventing costly mistakes.
Back-of-the-book CD provides electronic, editable versions of necessary forms, allowing inspectors to do twice the work in half the time.
