This agreement presents the requirements for special inspection, testing and structural
observation for residential construction designed following the 2014 Oregon Structural
Specialty Code (the 2012 International Building Code with 2014 Oregon amendments)
In accordance with OSSC Sections 107.1, 1704.2, 1704.3, and 1704.5, special inspections
and testing are required for the types of construction shown in the approved project drawings.
These tests and inspections shall be determined and performed following the provisions in
these Code sections.
Special Inspector Duties
The special inspector shall comply with the duties and responsibilities presented in Sections
II and V of the OBOA Special Inspection Program and shall observe and document the work
for conformance with the approved plans and specifications. All written results of these
inspections or tests, including noncompliance lists and final summary letters, shall be
provided to the Building Official and the registered design professional in responsible charge.
Sequencing
Special inspections are in addition to, and do not replace, inspections required to be
performed by City inspectors. Before proceeding with the project, City inspectors
must approve all work after a report by the special inspector has been provided.
Example: Prior to placing concrete in a footing/foundation, approval by BOTH the special
inspector and City inspector must be obtained.
The final special inspection report shall be submitted to the Building Services Division a
minimum of two days prior to requesting a final inspection. A final inspection request
will not be granted until the final special inspection report has been deemed acceptable by
the Building Services Division.
Based upon the work shown in the project drawings, and the provisions in Chapter 17 of
the 2014 Oregon Structural Specialty Code (OSSC), the inspections listed in Part A below
are required for this project.
