You catch more

14
WHY Focused Inspections ?
1. Easy to get side tracked
• Disruptions
• Concentrate on one thing
& overlook others
![Page 15: You ARE - Wisconsin Healthcare Engineering Association€¦ · 12 Steps of Focused Inspections 23 % of CMS Surveys 1. Fire Alarm/Sprinkler Reports 76% 2. Ventilation 50% 3.

15
WHY Focused Inspections ?
2. Too familiar with building
• “Always been there”
• Issues don’t stand out

16
WHY Focused Inspections ?
3. Too Many Codes to Know
• There are dozens of codes
• There are thousands of
requirements

WHY Focused Inspections ?
4. Not Enough Time in Day
• Have dozens of things to do
• Important/Severity Matrix

FIREPROOFING
All beams & columns must be covered by fire proofing thick enough for the specified rating, typically >= 1-1/2”
Fire proofing @ end of flange can be ¼” thick
All items that are directly attached to
the steel framing must be insulated the
same thickness as the steel
Thick/heavy attachments must be insulated for 6” away from the framing
6”
2”
Never remove fire insulation to make
room for any plastic pipe or
insulation…NO amount of fire
proofing will make up for it !
[LSC 18.1.6.2]
All parts of beam clamps must be covered on all sides with 1-1/2” fire proofing
Light attachments, such as top track or hat channel, must be fully covered for 2” away from the framing

Categorical Waiver requirements will be mandatory if/when LSC 2012 is adopted
Recommendations:• MINIMIZE the use of power strips … you will be required
to monitor their use (including those for computers)
• BUY ONLY UL Listed Power Strips 1363, 1363A or 60601-1 (or other equiv listed)
• Standardize on a single brand & model for each type power strip (so they are readily identifiable)
