Event Details

Become a volunteer Disaster Services Worker for the State of California through the California Emergency Management Agency (Cal EMA) Safety Assessment Program

The goal of the California Office of Emergency Services (CA OES) Safety Assessment Program (SAP) is to help local government perform accurate facility safety assessments as quickly as possible. With potentially hundreds or thousands of damaged structures after an earthquake or other natural disaster, few, if any, local governments have the staff and resources to evaluate building safety in a short period of time.

In light of the recent events in Haiti and Chile, AIA SF is offering a full-day Safety Assessment Program Evaluators (SAP) training.  SAP Evaluators survey damaged facilities to determine if there are safety hazards to building occupants or to the general public as well as provide recommended posting of placards that denote the condition of each structure evaluated. A critical mass of A/E/C industry professionals is needed to facilitate community recovery in the event of an emergency.  Don’t miss this opportunity to do your part.

The full day class will include practical examples of post-disaster field conditions impacting structural safety, assessing the degree of severity, posting, and barricading procedures. QUALIFIED PARTICIPANTS (see important note below) will receive the Disaster Service Worker Emergency Response Team card. Possession of this card is required in order to participate in emergency CALBO call-out operations (photos of each participant will be taken and a loyalty oath are part of the in-class registration process).

Requirements
Licensed Architect, Engineer, Building Official, Building Code Official, Master Code Official, Building Inspector, Combination Inspector, Residential Building Inspector, Residential Combination Inspector, Building Plans Examiner, or Combination Plans Examiner
