<br />Tests and inspections indicated on the drawings are required for this project. The tests and
<br />inspections indicated here are the responsibilities of the Owner's Special Inspector, as required
<br />by Chapter 17 of the Building Code.
<br />The Special Inspector shall observe the work assigned for conformance with the approved
<br />design drawings and specifications.
<br />1. Special inspections and associated testing shall be performed by an approved qualified
<br />testing and inspecting agency meeting the requirements of ASTM E329 (materials),
<br />ASTM D3740 (soils), ASTM C1077 (concrete), and ASTM E543 (non-destructive
<br />testing). The testing and inspecting agency shall furnish to the architect/engineer a
<br />copy of their scope of accreditation. Special inspectors shall be certified by the building
<br />official. Welding inspectors shall be qualified per Section 6.1.4 of AWS D1.1.
<br />2. The Special Inspector shall furnish inspection reports to the building official, the
<br />Architect/Engineer and other designated persons. All discrepancies shall be brought to
<br />the immediate attention of the Contractor for correction, then, if uncorrected, to the
<br />proper design authority and to the Building Official.
<br />3. The Special Inspector shall submit a final signed report stating whether the work
<br />requiring special inspection was, to the best of the inspector's knowledge, in
<br />conformance with the approved plans and specifications and applicable standards of
<br />quality and workmanship of the Building Code.
<br />4. The Contractor shall hold a pre-construction meeting involving the Architect, Structural
<br />Engineer and the Special Inspector in order to discuss the specific requirements of this
<br />project.
<br />5. Terminology:
<br />a. Continuous: Special inspection by the special inspector who is present when and
<br />where the work to be inspected is being performed.
<br />b. Periodic: Special inspection by the special inspector who is intermittently present
<br />where the work to be inspected has been performed or is being performed.
<br />c. Observe: Observe these items on a random basis. Operations need not be delayed
<br />pending these inspections.
<br />d. Perform: Perform these tasks for each element.
<br />6. Indicated testing meets minimum requirements for structural testing to be provided by
<br />the approved qualified testing and inspecting agency. Additional tests for construction
<br />considerations are not indicated. The need for such additional tests shall be determined
<br />by the Contractor and provided at the Contractor's expense.
<br />7. See project specifications for additional requirements.
