Interiors

 

“The Country School” | Winslow Homer

Today at 11 AM EDT we review the status consensus products (codes, standards, guidelines, recommendations and safety legislation) that set the standard of care for the design, manufacture and maintenance of interior fixtures such as carpet, furniture, bookshelves and ceiling tiles, plumbing fixtures.  Waste management, laboratory fixtures, recycling amenities — i.e. things are not nailed down — are on the agenda.   Also we track elevated interest and market-making by conformity interests in the manufacturing and material recycling far up the value chain.

In large research universities, it is common for building service personnel engaged in keeping facilities clean and tidy to constitute the largest proportion of permanent employees; thus some consideration must be given to occupational safety.
