About this file
This is a Schedule of Fire Protection System Inspections by FPQC Specialist document (Amendment 008, dated 03/10/2026) that outlines inspection and surveillance requirements for fire protection systems during construction phases and final acceptance inspections.
The document establishes three surveillance phases: Surveillance During Construction (periodic on-site visits), Pre-Final Acceptance Inspection (FPQC must be onsite), and Final Acceptance Inspection (FPQC must be onsite). Inspections consist of three types: Visual Inspections (to confirm work conforms with contract requirements and applicable codes), Observations (witnessing component and system testing in person), and Documentation (recording all inspections, observations, and deficiencies in FPQC Reports per UFGS 01 45 00). The surveillance scope covers four primary system categories: Fire Suppression Systems (underground and above-ground piping, hydrants, hydrostatic testing, fire pump operations, sprinkler piping), Special Fire Suppression Systems (gaseous systems, elevator fire protection, firestopping), Passive Fire Protection Systems (fire-rated assemblies, fireproofing, firestopping), and Fire Alarm Systems (conduit, wiring, device installation). During construction, the FPQC performs visual inspections and observes testing; during pre-final inspection, the FPQC inspects all systems, witnesses functional testing, identifies deficiencies, verifies rework, and certifies conformance; during final acceptance, the FPQC verifies proper installation and operation, documents deficiencies, confirms corrections, and certifies completion. All inspections require daily documentation and recording of deficiencies in rework lists.

SCHEDULE OF FIRE PROTECTION SYSTEM
INSPECTIONS BY FPQC SPECIALIST
1. INSTRUCTIONS for FPQC Specialist:
Perform surveillance of fire protection system installation during construction and during pre-final and final acceptance inspections. Surveillance includes either visual inspections or observations performed by the FPQC as indicated in the following Schedule of Fire Protection System Inspections.
Check boxes in the schedule indicate the inspections or observations that are applicable to this project, which must be performed and documented by the FPQC.
Surveillance of fire protection system inspections is divided into three phases:
Surveillance During Construction – Includes periodic on-site visits by the FPQC during construction Pre-Final Acceptance Inspection – FPQC must be onsite during pre-final acceptance inspection Final Acceptance inspection – FPQC must be onsite during final acceptance inspection
2. INSPECTION TYPE
VISUAL INSPECTION:
Perform on-site visual inspections as indicated in the Schedule of Fire Protection System Inspections as construction progresses to confirm work conforms with the contract requirements including but not limited to verifying proper installation of equipment and materials in accordance with applicable codes. Where work will be covered up by finished walls and ceilings, inspections must be scheduled and performed when work is still visible.
OBSERVATION:
Observe component and system testing in person on-site as indicated in the Schedule of Fire Protection System Inspections. Confirm testing is completed in accordance with applicable codes and that testing was successful.
DOCUMENTATION:
Document all inspections and observations in the FPQC Report in accordance with UFGS 01 45 00.
Document any deficiencies and all work observed that has been successfully performed in accordance with the contract documents. Record deficiencies in the rework list.
