Construction projects are inspected for compliance with fire/life safety requirements, accessibility guidelines, and structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and energy conservation codes. Specific inspection requirements are listed on the permit(s) when issued but may not be all-inclusive.
- OUBO Inspection Requests (UBOIR) are submitted through e-Builder by the Contractor. Instructions are available on e-Builder. Contact Mason’s Project Manager if you need assistance. OUBO strives to perform inspections within two (2) business days after receiving requests.
Once issued, permits shall be posted by the general contractor near the entrance to the site or otherwise conspicuous location. OUBO stamped approved construction documents (plans & specifications), OEM installation instructions, and any subsequent RFI, ASI, or shop drawing requiring OUBO approval, shall be available on-site for use by construction and inspection personnel. (USBC Sections 108.1, 109.5, and 110.5.)
The OUBO fully supports all options available to ensure accurate and timely inspection services including 3rd party inspections if applicable.
