In construction, framing is the structural support system of your building. This includes walls, doors, windows, flooring, and roofing—basically, the materials that hold your building together. Most framing materials are made of wood or steel, but more optimal materials can increase your building’s energy efficiency, too.
A framing inspection ensures the structure of your building is sturdy and safe for occupation.
Failing a framing inspection can cost you in more ways than one and can potentially push back your project’s budget or schedule—especially if you have to redo some of your work.
Conducting a framing pre-inspection helps you better prepare your building. How? With a pre-inspection checklist (like this one), you can make sure you completed your scope of work.
Pre-inspections for framing, and construction in general, help you save time and money in the long run.
In 2018, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) states the top citations for framing were:
Residential construction, fall protection (lack of guardrails, safety nets, or personal fall arrest system)
Fall protection (unprotected sides and edges)
Eye and face protection
Training program
Portable ladders
According to OSHA, that same year, the top injury events for framing include:
Head injuries
Falls
Struck by objects or equipment
Slips, trips, and falls
Overexertion and bodily reactions
Struck by objects or equipment
