The review of these plans is to assure proper
information for the contractor, and as a guide
for the inspector to do footing inspections by.
It should not be mistaken as a check of the
Engineer's Specifications. Inspections will be
done as per plans submitted.
All structural stability designs and
construction will be the responsibility of James
M. Weller Associates. Therefore, Mr. Weller
or an associate of his should conduct inspections
of their own throughout the project.
