 3.7 INSPECTION PROCEDURE:

facility occupants about current and past facility problems. Ask specifically about:
n Structural:
Safety hazards

know where to look for a cause of the problem from the outside
n Mechanical:
Safety hazards
Air temperature
Plumbing problems
Electrical:
Safety hazards
Flickering lights or other electrical devices
Sparks from panels, lights, or outlets
Using Inspection Guides from Chapter 4, conduct physical inspection of the
facility. As you inspect the facility, fill out Inspection Report forms with the required in-
formation. Mark the floor plans to note deficiency locations. Each system related to
your trade should be checked as a whole (heating system, lighting system, window sys-
tem, etc.). Start from the outside of the facility and work in.
