Playbook

Pre-Inspection Checklists Hub

One place for pre-TAB, pre-cover, pre-seismic, and pre-fire-damper walks.

What this covers

Inspection, TAB, ceiling close, or life-safety review is coming and you need a structured walk instead of winging it.

How to use this playbook

  1. Pick the checklist that matches the inspection phase, then walk by room/grid/system with photos.
  2. Pre-TAB: devices, dampers, flex, access, seal, VAV/equipment readiness.
  3. Pre-cover: hidden work, access, labels, seal, supports, other crew defects.
  4. Pre-seismic: brace visibility, anchors, tags, detail references, corrosion.
  5. Pre-fire-damper: access, labels, blade path, actuator, sleeve/angles, correction log.

Check

  • Wide room/grid
  • Problem close-up
  • Tag/label/detail
  • Punch list markup

Warnings

  • Do not do an inspection walk from memory only.
  • Do not let hidden-work or life-safety items close without a list.
  • Do not treat inspection prep as someone else's problem if you were assigned the walk.

Stop and ask

  • Ask what inspection is coming, what area/system is included, and who needs the punch list before the walk starts.
