Not marking seismic locations for inspection
Before seismic inspection, make brace locations visible, labeled/locatable, and photo-documented. Do not let inspection items disappear behind ceiling or insulation.
Watch out Do not modify or copy bracing/rigging from another area just because it looks similar. Check Walk each brace by area/system. Confirm anchors, clamps, brace direction, labels/tags, and structural attachment points are visible. Mark room/grid/location for the inspector. Make a punch list of missing tags, blocked access, corrosion, wrong angle, or unclear details. Steps Walk each brace by area/system.
