  A threshold inspector is a certified building inspector who works for a consulting / engineering firm. If a building exceeds a height, square footage, or occupancy load, the client usually funding the project is required by law to hire a threshold inspector. In addition to performing structural inspections, a threshold inspector will oversee certain activities during building such as pouring concrete and post tensioning. Threshold inspectors can be considered a form of quality control seeing that they are hired by the developers and not the general contractor, therefore not having to answer to the General Contractor.

According to Florida Statute 553.71(7) "Threshold Building" means any building which is greater than three stories or 50 feet in height or which has an assemble occupancy classification as defined in the Florida Building Code and which exceeds 5000 square feet in area and an occupant greater than 500 persons.  The threshold inspection plan must be submitted to and approved by the enforcing agency prior to the issuance of a building permit for the construction of a threshold building.

We have licensed special inspectors and licensed professional engineers on staff that can perform the threshold inspection as required by the engineer of record and/or applicable codes.  Studio A Engineering has twenty two years of experience and has completed hundreds of projects which have required threshold inspections.
