SUPERSTRUCTURES has been performing mandated exterior wall inspections for many of NYC’s most prominent buildings since the inception of the City’s first façade inspection ordinance in 1980.
The Facade Inspection Safety Program (FISP) is the name given by the NYC Department of Buildings (DOB) to the rules and regulations addressing the condition of the exterior walls of NYC’s building stock. Until recently the FISP program was referred to as “NYC Local Law 11.”
Every five years, facades of all NYC buildings over six stories must be examined by a qualified professional, and a report filed with the DOB. Conditions identified as UNSAFE must be corrected on an expedited basis, and conditions identified as Safe with a Repair and Maintenance Program (SWARMP) in one inspection cycle must be corrected prior to the filing deadline of the following inspection cycle. The current FISP inspection cycle, Cycle 8, commenced on February 21, 2015, and will run through February 21, 2019. For more information visit website #LL11 engineer.
