CODE REFERENCE PACKAGE
The Fire Marshal Code Reference Package (CRP) is authored and compiled by members of the Engineering Plans Review Branch. The document provides information and guidance to architects, engineers, designers, and installers about document submittal and plan review requirements related to the Uniform Statewide Building Code (USBC), Fire Prevention Code, and Fairfax County Public Facilities Manual (PFM). In addition, design, installation, and acceptance testing guidelines and policies for fire protection equipment and aboveground and underground storage tanks are provided. The CRP also outlines fire protection and safety requirements as well as tenant occupancy requirements for buildings under construction and renovation.
