Building Inspection Record WCC
This Building Inspection Record WCC is a comprehensive checklist for assessing building safety and compliance. It covers emergency access arrangements and override systems, external inputs such as notices from the fire authority, and the building evacuation strategy. Inspectors are guided to verify premises information boxes, emergency response packs, plant and auxiliary rooms, refuse areas, bicycle and communal spaces, and office use. The checklist includes car park and garage conditions, life safety systems including fire detection and alarms, sprinklers, ventilation, and dry or wet risers. It reviews communal fire doors, service risers for electrical, gas, water, ventilation, and telecoms, lift types and operation, lighting, wayfinding and safety signage, and clear escape routes. Additional sections address photovoltaic panels, notice boards, current remediation or investment works, resident communications and building safety information, fire risk assessment status and actions, open actions tracking, and the building safety case report, with space for evidence and notes.
