Good evening everyone. Does anyone know where I could pick up IPC and IMC field inspection checklists for new inspectors? Any help will be much appreciated. :)
 
Check out MyBuildingPermit (https://mybuildingpermit.com/inspection-checklist). These are great checklists...

While checklists are helpful, they should not be used in the field if you hope for the new inspectors to survive. Study them, but first time they whip it out in front of a contractor they will lose all authority. Additionally, checklists tend to create inspectors who only look at what is on the checklist, which leaves a lot to be missed.
 
Leo, you may also want to check with/ become a member of your local NFPA chapter, members love to help "newbees".
