SPECIAL INSPECTIONS

PART 1 - GENERAL

1.1 DESCRIPTION

A. This guide specification will be applicable to both new buildings and existing building rehabilitations/renovations. In addition to the

Special Inspection and testing specified requirements, a registered design professional must perform structural observations during construction. All observed deficiencies will be immediately reported to the Contracting Officer. The registered design professional performing these observations will be a representative of the Designer of Record

(DOR) for the building being constructed.

B. Structural observations are required for the following project conditions per IBC Chapter 17 U.N.O.:

1. Seismic Design Category D, E or F; and assigned to Risk Cat III, IV or V.

2. Seismic Design Category D, E or F; and with a height greater than

22860 mm 75 ft.

3. Seismic Design Category E, assigned to Risk Category I or II and the building is greater than two stories above grade plane.

4. Nominal design wind speed in excess of 49 m/sec 110 mph; and assigned to Risk Cat III, IV or V.

5. Nominal design wind speed in excess of 49 m/sec 110 mph; and with a height greater than 23 m 75 ft.

The DOR is registered or licensed to practice their respective design profession as defined by the statutory requirements of the professional registration laws in state in which the design professional works. The

01 45 35-4

DOR is also referred to as the Engineer of Record (EOR) in design code documents.

K. Statement of Special Inspections (SSI) – A document developed by the

DOR identifying the material, systems, components and work required to have Special Inspections and covering the following:
