About this template
Use this checklist after a temporary structure is erected and before the public is let in. It checks the supplier paperwork, the structure and its anchoring, wind and weather against the supplier limits you write in, exits and paths, electrical leads and generators, and ends with a decision to open, open with limits or hold. It prints no wind speed, ballast weight or capacity.
