Special Inspection Services  

SIGMA Engineering Laboratories Provide inspections to verify that work that is considered critical to life safety and property protection is being or has been constructed according to the approved plans and specifications in Order to insure the compliance with the code and the referenced standards adopted by the code and approved construction documents.

What Special Inspections Are Required for Your Project ? Section 1704 and 1705 of the IBC code and the adopted referenced standards cited therein outline what special inspections are required on the various types of construction and construction materials (soil, concrete, masonry, reinforcing steel, structural steel, sprayed fire-resistant materials, foundations, etc.).  These sections of the IBC code and the referenced standards in TANDEM with Table 1604.5 “Risk Category of Buildings and Other Structures” clarify special inspections required by the code and the degree and extent of the special inspections that should be provided (periodic and/or continuous).
