Resulting Inspections so your Trips Count!

1/8/2019

 
It’s helpful for Inspectors and Building Officials to understand what inspection results mean, what they do in ePermitting, and how they are being counted in data reports. The following chart and definitions may be useful in understanding the functions of inspection results.
Picture
  • Denied = failing the inspection and citing the required code correction in the Comments.
  • Information Only = indicates a request for some level of consultation on a particular portion of the construction project – inspector goes out, reviews, and provides code reference.
  • No Access = inspector has no access to the job site or location to be inspected.
  • Not Ready = inspection was scheduled but the work is not completed/not ready for inspection.
  • Partial = this is partial approval of a section/area of the named inspection, i.e. Foundation Inspection – due to the size of the project, it may require multiple trips/inspections of the foundation prior to the total foundation being poured/complete. Customer requests the section/area to be inspected – inspector performs the inspection of that specific section/area and partially approves the foundation inspection only for that specific area, noting that in the Comments. The expectation is that the inspector will go out to inspect the remaining sections/areas up to completion of that particular inspection.
  • Cancelled = when the customer cancels the inspection at any point in time.
  • Wrong Inspection Requested = inspector gets to the job site and determines that the wrong type of inspection was requested – schedules the correct type of inspection and performs that inspection within the SAME TRIP.
  • Holdover = commonly known as “rolling” an inspection – inspection was scheduled for today but due to workload or extenuating circumstances, the inspector is unable to complete that inspection on that day, noting that in the Comments; is often driven by local policy.
  • Approved = passing the inspection, Comments are optional.
  • Approved with Conditions = passing the inspection with specific required conditions noted in the Comments, considered complete.
  • Not Required = the wrong inspection was requested and no inspection will be provided on that trip (in contrast to Wrong Inspection Requested where correct inspection is scheduled real-time and performed within the same trip).
  • Accepted = most typical case is work was done in advance of permit issuance or without permit, sometimes years prior, and a policy decision is made, after inspection and review, to accept the work/inspection as complete.
It is very helpful if these are used consistently in ePermitting and outside of ePermitting. Inspection trip count is used in various data reports based on the descriptions provided.
