There is a weep screed and it should be 2" above the concrete. The lath is self furring but they managed to overcome that feature with staples at 6" on center.
This is a correction written during a water heater inspection. Does a water heater have a tail piece?

This correction was written during an inspection of a room addition. There is no mechanical or electrical plan and the inspector has told them to submit plan revisions to the plan check engineer. Asking for installation instructions for mounting mini-splits?

Doesn't it have to be seismic in Cali?...They say you are tough.....I wouldn't be too critical of the word tailpiece, plans for residential? or commercial job?
When an inspector doesn't know the terminology it is no surprise that the correction states that the T&P + the smitty pan
shall have a drain that terminates no more than 6" above grade.
The compressor is a skinny little mini-split at a residence. There was no mechanical plan to revise, and who the Heck would ask
for a plan check review of the anchorage to a plastic platform sitting in the yard.

Column 3 ....under minimum 4" thick concrete slab....so it is deep enough.....however it is NMC that is not allowed in a wet location......the conduit is schedule 40 and shall be schedule 80 where it is above ground...the conduit is too small in diameter for the eventual conductors.....the pull box is too small and shall be inset into the wall.
