Building Safety Month
Building safety and fire prevention codes address all aspects of construction, such as structural
soundness of buildings, reliability of fire prevention and suppression systems, plumbing and
mechanical systems, and energy efficiency and sustainability. To ensure buildings are safe, the
active participation of building safety and fire prevention officials, architects, builders,
engineers, contractors and others in the construction industry, as well as property owners is
required. To help raise awareness of building safety, the Logan City Building Safety Department
proudly celebrates Building Safety Month this May. The theme,
"An International Celebration of
Safe and Sensible Structures"
highlights four areas:
Energy and Green Building; Disaster Safety
and Mitigation; Fire Safety and Awareness;
and
Backyard Safety.
Come join us in celebrating Building Safety Month in the month of May!
