Re: Pre pour inspection - monolithic slab construction
Done some pre-pour insp's. Usually the same, check sewer connection, inground plumbing, slope, gravel, radiant flooring loops, wire mesh, stubs, etc. I always require a set of plans ahead of time so I can review. Standing there looking at the plans for the 1st time is no good. I don't do the insp if they want to schedule for the morning of the pour. Waste of my time and their money. Like they are going to tell the cement truck to turn around if I find problems? I'll only inspect a day or two before pour. Usually works out fine. I don't really care. Muni insp rarely show up so they need someone to verify what's there.
