We have AHJ'S that will issue,a correction notice for missing placards. If it 
is noted on an inspection as a deficiency, and if you're AHJs want copies of 
inspections to be filed with them, then that would be a potential  enforcement 
benchmark.

Subject: Hydraulic Placards

A client of mine has posed a question.
I understand part of a system inspection is to verify the adequacy of the water 
supply. Many older buildings are missing the hydraulic placard on the riser, 
and original plans/calcs are not available.

A full-blown survey and hydraulic calculation is too expensive and the owner 
will balk at it.

Those of you who are involved in inspections, how do you handle this and what 
would you recommend?
Would a rough 'guestimate' suffice depending on the occupancy?


Thank  you.
