    NFPA 13r Response Paper

    You asked the following question: “We are currently working on a NFPA 13R designed building that has an open and attached porte-cochere. The AHJ follows the 2007 edition of this standard.

    FFA: A Farming Organization

    Introduction and Overview For several years, the FFA has been thought of by many as the “Future Farmers of America.” While farming may have been the fundamentals of this organization, it has evolved into so much more.

Contrary to popular belief, FFA’s sole purpose is to make a positive difference in the lives of students by developing their leadership skills, personal growth, and career success through agricultural education. The National FFA consists of 649,355 members, from 7,859 chapters in all 50 states.…

    FLSA: A Case Study

    The situation that brought about the need for the FLSA was the Great Depression, and previously weak employment and business laws.
