i. Secure access to three buildings, at least one of each must be:
a. A Class 2, 3, or 9 building, and
b. A Class 5, 6, 7, or 8 building
You will need access to these three buildings so that you can assess each building's compliance with the fire protection requirements in your state or territory, which will be done in Task 3.2.
All three buildings must be a Class 2, 3, or 9 building and a Class 5, 6, 7, or
8 building.
