CODE ADVISORY – Effective July 1, 2021 – Certain building types (high-rise commercial and residential apartments) have been granted an extension. If your building has “dead zones” for public safety radio signals, you must install a BDA system. The new codes will require buildings to be verified and in compliance by 2025.
This requirement can apply to many buildings with public safety concerns, including:
- Office building
- Parking structures and storage unit facilities
- Hotels and hospitality venue
- High-rises
- Malls and retail center
- Campuses
- Stadiums and arenas
- Airports, train stations, and other transit centers
This White Paper outlines key dates, next steps, how to comply with NFPA 1221, an overview of NFPA 72 and IFC requirements and details on retrofit vs. new construction options.
