We have better standards with up-to-date requirements that provide better options to meet our fire safety goals. And a wireless temporary fire alarm system, like the RamTech fire alarm system, becomes an investment rather than an additional cost of construction.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row vc_custom_1786700678971 row-internal row-container\" style=\"padding-top: 50px ;padding-bottom: 50px ;\"><div class=\"row unequal col-double-gutter row-child\"><div class=\"wpb_row row-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_column pos-middle pos-center align_center column_child col-lg-3 single-internal-gutter\"><div class=\"uncol style-light\" ><div class=\"uncoltable\"><div class=\"uncell no-block-padding\" ><div class=\"uncont\" ><div class=\"uncode-single-media  text-left\"><div class=\"single-wrapper\" style=\"max-width: 100%;\"><div class=\"tmb tmb-light  img-circle tmb-media-first tmb-media-last tmb-content-overlay tmb-no-bg\"><div class=\"t-inside\"><div class=\"t-entry-visual\"><div class=\"t-entry-visual-tc\"><div class=\"uncode-single-media-wrapper img-circle\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-143663\" src=\"https:\/\/news.ramtechglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/william_d_moore.webp\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" alt=\"Headshot of Wayne D.

default way to cover a construction site, usually a single person walking the building with an air horn. Wayne D. Moore, PE, a fire protection engineer and Principal member of the NFPA 72 Correlating Committee, argues this approach is no longer good enough. People take breaks, stand in the wrong place, hesitate to raise an alarm, and fall asleep on night shifts. Meanwhile the rise of timber and mass timber high-rise construction has sharply increased what is at stake. NFPA Research records an average of 4,300 construction fires a year in the United States, causing $375 million in property damage. This article explains the code chain that makes NFPA 241 legally binding through the IBC and IFC, sets out the main causes of site fires including the newer risk from charging power tool batteries, and shows how a temporary wireless fire alarm system meets the requirements and can be reused across projects.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":143665,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[101],"tags":[383,395,508,511,385,512,509,507,506,510,503,444,505,281,305,504,154,141],"class_list":["post-143644","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-industry-news","tag-construction-fire-safety","tag-construction-site-safety","tag-fire-prevention-program-manager","tag-fire-protection-engineering","tag-fire-watch","tag-high-rise-timber","tag-hot-work-permits","tag-international-building-code","tag-international-fire-code","tag-lithium-battery-charging","tag-mass-timber","tag-nfpa-241","tag-nfpa-72","tag-ramtech","tag-temporary-fire-alarm-systems","tag-timber-frame-construction","tag-wes3","tag-wireless-fire-alarm"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.2 (Yoast SEO v28.2) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Fire Watch or Temporary Fire Alarm Systems? | NFPA 241<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Fire watches rely on people who tire and miss things.
