Final Framing Observation
On July 19, 2023 Swenson Say Faget performed a site visit. This site visit represents the completion of our structural
observation. These structural observations are described in the 2018 International Building Code Section 1704.6.
We visually observed the framing for general conformance to the approved plans and specifications. This
observation does not include or waive inspections as required in Sections 1703, 1704.1-5, and 1705.
In our structural observation, selected portions of the work were reviewed where possible. Not all areas of
construction were accessible. Review procedures were conducted in accordance with commonly accepted
standards of practice. The procedures indicate actual conditions only where the review was performed and that the
results were inferred to exist in other areas not reviewed or not visible.
Structural review is a technique employed to minimize the risk of problems arising during construction. Structural
observation by the design professional does not constitute warranty or guarantee of any type. In all cases, the
contractor shall retain responsibility for the quality of work and for adherence to the approved plans and
specifications.
During our site visit we observed the following conditions that did not meet our permitted design intent:
• S2.3 — Blocked roof between grids 4/5 and C/D not observed

We understand the decks already have a membrane on top and attaching the blocking from below may be
preferred. In lieu of the 8d nails, #6x2" screws may be used from below.
• General observation — Shearwall base plate nailing not observed at a few locations. Contractor to confirm
base plate nailing at shearwalls.
