There are over 360 NFPA codes and standards, which provide the basis for inspection under various circumstances. NFPA 1031 addresses the professional qualifications of those who carry out fire inspections and plans reviews.
Locally enacted statutes and ordinances often adopt the Life Safety Code and National Fire Code (or equivalent) as the legal requirements for fire inspections.
Individual sections of those codes would be the source of the inspection requirements pertinent to a particular type of occupancy or hazard, with reference to the general requirements for all hazards and specific other codes and standards for particular situations.
For example, Life Safety Code (NFPA 101) Chapter 15 contains the "life safety" requirements for "existing educational occupancies" with reference to Chapter 9 for fire protection equipment, which references NFPA 10, the standard for fire extinguishers, which references Underwriter's Laboratories and other industrial standards for manufacturing and testing the actual devices.
Similarly, NFPA 1, the National Fire Code, contains fire prevention requirements for all sorts of hazards and occupancies, with reference to other codes and standards for specific criteria.
