New home inspection focus on safety and divergences from the required building codes.  Building codes are building guidelines that have been amended and adopted as minimum building requirements for the state of Georgia.  Individual counties or other jurisdictions may exceed these codes.  Some counties may not have the financial ability to support a code enforcement staff, this does not relieve the builders in those counties from meeting the requirements of the building codes.  For the GA Department of Consumer Affairs web site double click on the following hyperlink:http://www.dca.state.ga.us/development/constructioncodes/programs/codes2.asp#ProgramDescription

1.0 Inspection of footers was conducted using the ICC / CABO guidelines as set forth by the Georgia Department of Community Affairs as the minimum building standards.  The inspection was conducted prior to the installation of concrete. The inspection reveled no visible defects in the construction of the trench, forms or rebar that is to be used for the footers.  The following observations were made:

Footer Depth        15"

Footer Width        24"

Double row of rebar along the bottom of the footer spaced 7" apart and  elevated an average of 5" above the bottom of the trench.

The trench was apparently dug on previously undisturbed soil.
