approved by the Building Official.
Continuous Inspection means the same inspector is on site day to day to observe the work
requiring special inspection.
Periodic Inspection means some inspections may be performed on a periodic basis to satisfy the
requirements of continuous inspection, provided these periodic inspections are performed as
outlined in the project plans and specifications, and approved by the Building Official.
2. REPORT NONCONFORMING ITEMS

omission. It shall also be the duty of the special inspector to promptly notify the engineer or
architect of record.
