Periodic inspection, testing, and maintenance of fire protection systems provide a level of certainty that the system will operate when called upon.
For your Final Project, you are to submit a paper that covers the following:
1. Discuss the lessons learned and the importance of inspections, testing, and maintenance in light of the readings you have done on high-rise structures.
2. Discuss at least three U.S. fire-related examples, either from our readings or from other sources, which show where inspections, testing, and maintenance failed; resulting in extreme damage, injury, or loss of life.
Be sure to base your information on facts and not opinion, and be sure that first person is not used in your paper.
