Section 702 (Rated Construction), FS44-24 Installer Qualifications (typical marketmaking), Section 3801 (Materials exceeding the Maximum Allowable Quantity), F59-24 (Battery Containment Areas), F81-24 (Health Care Facility Plugs), F112-24 (Lithium Ion Battery Labs), F197-24 (Market making, laboratory oven protection study), F235-24 (Hazardous Materials Classifications & quantity limits).


Safety and sustainability concepts for research and healthcare delivery cut across many disciplines and standards suites and provides significant revenue for most research universities.  The International Code Council provides free access to current editions of its catalog of titles incorporated by reference into public safety law.  CLICK HERE for an interactive edition of Chapter 38 of the 2021 International Fire Code.

During today’s colloquium we will examine consultations for the next edition in the link below:

We encourage our colleagues to participate directly in the ICC Code Development process.   The next revision of the International Fire Code will be undertaken accordingly to next ICC Code Development schedule; the timetable linked below:

2024/2025/2026 ICC CODE DEVELOPMENT SCHEDULE

We encourage directly employed front-line staff of a school district, college or university that does not operate in a conformance/compliance capacity — for example, a facility manager of an academic unit — to join a committee.  Not the Fire Marshall.  Not the Occupational Safety Inspector.  Persons with job titles listed below:

  • Fire Safety System Designer
  • Fire Alarm Technician (Shop Foreman)
  • Building Commissioner
  • Electrical, Mechanical Engineer
  • Occupational Safety Engineer

These subject matter experts generally have a user-interest point of view.

Contact Kimberly Paarlberg (kpaarlberg@iccsafe.org) for information about how to do so.

What Is A Standard Drink?

 

“It’s a fine line between Saturday night

and Sunday morning” – Jimmy Buffett

 

“Rather a bottle in front of me

than a frontal lobotomy” — Some guy

 

Many people are surprised to learn what counts as a “drink”. The amount of liquid in your glass, can, or bottle does not necessarily match up to how much alcohol is actually in your drink.  Even before the United States federal government withdrew from regulating alcohol, the conversation, and degree of agreement and  attitude, remains remarkably regionally specific:

English Fry Up

The Full English Breakfast, or “fry-up,” originated in the Victorian era (1830s–1900s) as a hearty meal for the rural gentry and emerging industrial working class in Britain. It combined affordable, energy-dense ingredients—butter-fried eggs, back bacon, sausages, fried bread, tomatoes, mushrooms, baked beans, and black pudding—designed to fuel long days of manual labor or fox-hunting. By the Edwardian period it had become a symbol of British identity and was served in hotels and boarding houses to travelers.

 

In the United States, the fry-up arrived on college campuses primarily after World War II via two routes: British faculty and students at elite universities (Oxford-Cambridge exchanges, Rhodes Scholars) and the 1960s–70s “British Invasion” cultural wave. Dining halls at places like Yale, Harvard, and certain Ivy League-adjacent schools began offering weekend “English breakfasts” as novelty brunches. The tradition stuck hardest at boarding schools and liberal-arts colleges with strong Anglophile traditions (e.g., Choate, St. Paul’s, Middlebury, Kenyon).

 

By the 1980s–90s, beans on toast and proper rashers of back bacon became hangover cures at off-campus houses, cementing the fry-up as a once-a-semester ritual rather than daily fare.
