Building Safety Month, Week 1: Keeping fire in its place
Code compliance, working smoke and carbon monoxide alarms are key to saving lives
May’s Building Safety Month has been used since its inception in 1980 as an opportunity to promote public awareness about a variety of building hazards.
The theme for week one of this year's Building Safety Month, sponsored by the American Wood Council (AWC), is “Code Officials: Keeping Fire in its Place.”
