Static field route #456

What do I do when not verifying supports before insulation?

QA/QC, Punchlist, Documentation & TurnoverQA/QC starter — verify before calling it complete

Check supports before final sign-off: correct type, secure anchors, no missing rods/straps, no sag, and no other trade loading them.

Field checklist

Look at every support in the run.
Check rods/straps/trapeze/anchors are complete.
Look for sag, twist, missing nuts, loose hardware, or damaged supports.
Make sure no other trade is hanging from the duct/support.
Ask before adjusting support spacing/type.

Ask foreman

Can you verify these supports before this run is signed off?

Do not

Do not call duct complete when it is hanging on temporary or questionable support.

Why it matters

Support problems are cheaper to fix before insulation, ceiling, and other trades close around them.
