In most cases, the building's existing fire alarm system is activated and the building is evacuated as if the emergency had occurred. Generally, the evacuation is timed to ensure that it is fast enough, and problems with the emergency system or evacuation procedures are identified to be remedied. In addition to fire drills, most buildings have their fire alarm systems checked on a regular basis to ensure that the system is working and that people in the building are familiar with the sound of the fire alarm whilst they are at work. Fire alarm tests are often done on a weekly basis and in schools they are often done during a time when students and staff aren't around or during the holidays where specialist fire alarm engineers will test the alarms in the building and repair or upgrade the system if needed.
