Recognizing Construction Safety Week: Prioritizing Risk Prevention in Every Phase Another successful Construction Safety Week began on May 5th, and Burnham Nationwide was proud to support safer building practices through expert permit expediting and code consulting. In busy cities like Los Angeles, where rules are often updated and hard to follow, reducing risk starts early—with good planning, the right permits, and code compliance.

Addressing the Complexity of Permit Expediting in LA
Construction projects in LA can be challenging because of strict and often confusing rules. That’s why Burnham Nationwide’s permit expediting team helps guide projects through the process to avoid delays and stay on track. Common permits include new construction, renovations, tenant improvements, and public way permits. Some cases—like doors that open into sidewalks—need special approvals. These details show how complex urban building rules can be. Burnham’s approach helps teams follow safety rules and meet city requirements before work even starts, leading to safer job sites and fewer problems later on.
Importance of Thorough Due Diligence in Permitting
Conducting rigorous due diligence during the permitting process significantly reduces project risk—a core principle emphasized during Construction Safety Week. By understanding regulatory requirements upfront, stakeholders can prevent costly compliance errors, budget overruns, and project delays. Effective due diligence involves a proactive approach to identify and address code compliance issues early, ensuring seamless progression from the planning stages through completion.
A Burnham representative states, "Thorough due diligence in permitting is crucial. It helps our clients anticipate challenges and navigate regulatory complexities efficiently, ultimately saving valuable time and resources."
Door Swing Permits: A Critical and Often Overlooked Urban Requirement
One specific regulatory detail - door swings into public ways - represents the detailed focus required in urban construction permitting. Classified under "grant of privilege," these permits are meant to protect people walking by and keep sidewalks clear and safe. Burnham Nationwide’s permit expeditors have strong experience getting these special permits, helping businesses avoid costly mistakes and stay fully compliant. Paying attention to small but important details like these supports both public safety and the goals of Construction Safety Week.
Expert Code Consulting: Ensuring Complete Compliance for Safer Sites
Burnham Nationwide’s experienced code consulting team plays a key role in helping projects stay fully compliant with local rules from start to finish. Their code consultants understand LA’s building codes, updates, and safety standards, and they use that knowledge to guide clients through the process. This expert support helps teams avoid common mistakes and keeps construction in line with all city rules, which lowers the risk of safety issues or code violations.
