21 Systematic inspection Checklists Inspect per Plan review Comment Sheet Don t let yourself be steered or distracted Try to have the same procedure every time

22 Where to spend your time Amount of time allotted? Least versus most common and serious corrections Anchor bolt spacing, distance from ends of plate, visible? Stud size, spacing, height, condition Stair framing, walls under stairs Floor truss nailing (3 per end) Notching/boring for mechanicals (cut sheet in clipboard) Engineered lumber/ allowable alterations
