Our Committees / Engineering & Standards Committee

Engineering & Standards Committee

  • To promote and support the overall mission of NFSA and the purpose and objectives of model codes and standards development. 
  • To promote the development of codes and standards that are scientifically and technically sound, that encourage creativity and innovation in the development of new methods and technologies, and that set reasonable standards intended to minimize the effects of fire and related hazards. 
  • To promote standards with non-restrictive means and methods of compliance to encourage competitive commercial availability of the resources, materials and products required to be employed. Recommended changes to the standards should avoid proprietary requirements.
