Hazardous Building Occupancies |
|
|
Compliance with hazardous
chemical building and fire
prevention codes in the
workplace can be very
challenging both to attain
construction approval and satisfy
post construction inspections.
Local Building and Development
officials increasingly are
requiring submission of Technical
Opinion Reports and Hazardous
Material Management Plans to
assist them in building permit
application review.
Traditionally, companies focused
on the receipt, storage and use of
hazardous chemicals once
construction was complete.
Today, companies anticipate
building code and safety
concerns prior to construction in
order to speed permit application
review and help satisfy fire
prevention and safety officials
during later inspections.
TORF Environmental Management
applies experience in chemical
hazards, emissions, waste
management, risk assessment
and contingency planning in
developing pre-construction
Reports for building officials and
pre-construction specifications
and post-construction workplace
audits for engineers, architects,
construction management
professionals and property
owners.
