Build and inspection
Final dimensions, installed equipment, route suitability and acceptance records are confirmed for the selected project.
Reach, equipment and test records
Will the ladder reach the rescue position?
Compare the building access position with the approved working envelope at the required load. Maximum height and maximum radius may not be available together. The brigade's rescue method and crew requirements determine the equipment and acceptance scope for the destination.
Does the ladder include a waterway or platform?
Specify the waterway, monitor or platform needed in the selected build. The ladder description alone does not include those functions.
Do pump tests cover the ladder too?
Pump tests cover the water system. Ladder access needs separate records for the load envelope and approved access method. Match certificates to each ordered function; a general pump or platform certificate does not verify the complete ladder appliance.
What does the carrier need to know?
Provide complete stowed dimensions and identify removable firefighting equipment. Obtain the supplier's preparation instructions for the ladder and any fitted waterway.
