Inspections

Inspection services and reports are provided to the construction industry, real estate inspectors and developers, insurance companies, and management companies. The level of inspection is designed to fit each individual situation and may include a review of the structure, the building envelope (including roofing, windows, walls, and waterproofing), and an overview of the architectural, mechanical, and electrical systems. Threshold structural inspections are made and reports issued for industry clients. Reports on due-diligence inspections are provided to industry clients.

Special Threshold Inspections

Inspections of Concrete and Post-Tension Repair Projects

To obtain a permit for a concrete or post-tension repair/restoration project on a threshold building, the Florida Building Code requires that structural inspections be performed by a Special Inspector for Threshold Buildings. The findings related to a building collapse in 1981 led to the creation of the Threshold Inspection Law in Florida.

In the State of Florida only approximately 1.5% of registered professional engineers are certified as Special Inspectors.

At Atkins Engineers, four of our licensed professional engineers are also certified as Special Inspectors of Threshold Buildings.
