is titled Fire Plan Review and
Inspection Guidelines
The Yellow Book is a Fire Protection System;
Design, Installation, and Maintenance guide designed
by Eugene Fire Marshal Mike Thrapp. The Yellow Book
has been a work in progress for over 15 years,
having traveled with Mike from Alaska to Eugene in
the early 90's.
This document provides valuable code enforcement
and application clarification by way diagrams, check
lists and explanative narrative and has been updated
to reflect the new International Fire and Building
Code requirements and current NFPA standards.
Book updates:
The book is over now 400 pages and includes a CD
of the book in MS Word format. The following
systems have checklists for their respective
2002' & 2007' NFPA standard; sprinklers, fire
alarm, and fire pump. The sprinkler section has
new checklists for misc. storage, up to 25' and
greater than 25' storage sprinkler designs. The
book was rearranged in subject order to more
closely reflect the subject sequence found in
the IFC. Checklists were updated to the most
current NFPA edition, IBC and IFC.
Mike has agreed to collaborate with OFMA on the
sale of the Yellow Book for two reasons; to improve
consistency of code enforcement in the state of
Oregon and to strengthen OFMA's capacity to provide
education. All proceeds from the sale of the Yellow
Book go directly towards OFMA education
efforts. Thanks to OFMA member Mike Thrapp for his
dedication towards enhancing competency in our
field.
