    Thanks for the video. It would be helpful to include a link in the video description for part 2. Sometimes RUclips doesn’t show it next to the video.

    That anti-tip bracket for the stove...I did not know about that, not being a builder of any kind. But I realize its importance and will check mine in the home. You're making an important contribution here.

    Love your videos. My wife and I are looking into building our own home in GA. Where can we get a copy of the IRC buliding coded book?

    i appreciate you taking the time to make these videos. I just became an inspector, and I'm still trying to get a copy of the codebook (IRC). looking it up online isn't the same!

    After looking at some of these videos, a lot of this is just sloppy, shoddy work. You don't even need to know code, just take the bare minimum pride in your work. I've got some land and have been thinking about building the majority of a little house out there myself and these videos have been really helpful, thanks.

    Great info, professor! I didn't know about the 2 nails or 1 screw at the balusters. Gonna add that to my template and start checking on those decks.

      I don't know how it is over in Georgia but here in Texas, these builders are guaranteeing that I've got job security.

    Good video, I love the fact that you post the codes when you can. By the way on the stairs headroom part where you using a code buddy book to show the code? You my friend are a great source of information. Thank you

    Good stuff Renaldo! In my opinion (as an inspector), any head room height issue on a stairway on the final is shame on the inspector. The potential of a head room issue should be communicated on the rough inspection.

    • @PPG1967
      @PPG1967  8 месяцев назад +1

      You are correct on that one, unfortunately I didn't do the framing rough inspection. Also, that's something the builder or framer could've added after the framing inspection....happens all the time.

    That stairwell height should be caught in framing stage. They should make you repair it.

      So, I didn't do the framing inspection. Also, that could've been added after the framing inspection was done. It happens all the time.

      @@Faruk651 If the framer would’ve known what he was doing it wouldn’t have been an item to begin with. Trades need to learn to do their job right. The code book is nothing but minimums and not too much to ask. You act like you been but red tagged for lackadaisical framing and failure to comply before 😂😂😂

    Tip for your certs, call ICC and have them change all of your cert expiration dates to the same date. When you have multiple certs it's a lot easier to keep track of only one expiration date. Bonus tip, the building, plumbing, and mechanical plans examiner exams are almost the same as the corresponding inspector exams. You put in all of the time studying, might as well get two certifications out of it. FYI, the electrical inspector and electrical plans examiner exams are very, very different. Cheers
