As the state’s leading authority on fire prevention and safety, he oversees a range of responsibilities, including building inspections and engineering, hazardous materials, manufactured housing, fire investigations, and public fire safety education. His office plays a critical role in shaping the standards that keep our communities safe.
At this session, you’ll gain insights on how architects, designers, and the Fire Marshal’s Office can work together to design buildings that don’t just meet code but protect lives.
Marshal Landolt will also explain recent updates to fire safety regulations and discuss their implications for the future of design and construction in Georgia.
This is an invaluable opportunity to hear directly from the state’s top fire safety official about the evolving responsibilities we carry as designers and how collaboration can help us create safer, smarter, and more resilient spaces.
