Ryan:

This procedure is to be used to inspect the Green Space Balcony hanging connections. It was originally anticipated that the inspection would be done yearly for a couple of years, then transition to every five years. It is now five years since the completion of the work. The following should be done as a visual inspection. Only if there are problems that are documented from the inspection should a consultation be made to determine a different testing procedure. Below is a table of the connections and their location and size and number of bolts.
