Post-incident inspection on an expedited timeline — for Bergenfield property owners and managers needing the AHJ to clear re-occupancy.
When an incident affects the fire escape on a Bergenfield property — vehicle impact, fire damage, a heavy load event, sudden visible deformation — the structure cannot be relied upon as egress until it is inspected and the load-bearing capacity verified.
