Question 3
Which fastening check is most appropriate when verifying a wood sill plate to a concrete foundation in a Part 9 house?

Notches are always permitted anywhere on a joist
Plumbing pipes never conflict with framing rules
Notching in high-moment regions can critically reduce joist capacity; code limits location and depth of notches
Any notch is acceptable if filled with spray foam
Question 5
When verifying drilled holes in a solid sawn floor joist, what is the inspector’s key concern?
That holes are as large as possible for future services
That holes are only in the outer third of the span regardless of size
