- Location of construction fences, sidewalk sheds, temporary walkways, guardrails around excavations, etc.
- Location of surrounding buildings, loading areas, and standpipe system and Siamese hose connections
- All required safety netting and scaffolding
- All means of egress
- Indicators for proper signage, fire extinguishers, first aid kits, and disposal methods
- Consulting building codes, government regulations, and other emergency response agencies to ensure the job site is compliant with health, safety, and environmental regulations
