Branch Engineering visited the site on 11-12-96. Our findings are as follows.
1) Threaded rod hold-down anchors have been embedded as required at location
"A~'The builder's manner of installation is inconsistent with our original report;
however, his installation will provide more than the nescessary uplift restraint
required.
Hold-down anchors have been embedded as required at location "C".
Hold-down anchors have been embedded as required at the amended location
"0", as indicated on the amendment to our report, dated 11-7-96.
2) Hold-downs have been inspected at all locations and meet all requirements.
3) Shears walls have been inspected at locations "C" and "0" and meet all
requirements.
4) The shear wall at Location "A" require 5/8" gypsum wallboard sheathing on
both sides(6d cooler nails 4" o.c. all edges, 8"0.c. field); this work has not been
done to date.
5) An underfloor structural inspection was performed. All elements are in
compliance with the CABO one and two family dwelling code.
