9:30 - 10:15am Construction Fire Safety Plans: How to Deliver the Proper Documentation AHJ Panel
With construction fires making front page news recently, it is important to understand the associated requirements that result in 780 CMR scoping NFPA 241, Safeguarding Construction. Alteration, and Demolition Operations. Many jurisdictions have come to expect this documentation to be provided as a condition of building permit and use the document as a baseline for site fire safety inspections. Every jurisdiction is different and with that come different expectations for construction fire safety. This program will outline the contents of a Construction Fire Safety Plan and provide insight in to what the AHJ is likely looking for in a Construction Fire Safety Plan as well as the implementation of the plan.
10:15 - 10:30am Coffee/Networking Break
10:30 - 11:15am Learning from Success: What Best Practices leading GC's/CM's have been Implementing for Positive Outcomes - Construction Manager Panel

How and what technology have they incorporated to better create a comprehensive Construction Fire Safety program? Hear from leading CM firms on the best practices for NFPA 241 Plan Development, Permitting and involving AHJ's and Owners to successfully implement the plan.
