What are these choices based on? I just got a building permit two weeks ago.
Our local requirements are currently 1 foot from corners, 6 foot spacing and 15" bolts.
Requirements for straps are closer spacing but there is not mention of them in my paperwork.
This is from the same building inspection department that allowed the contractor to use straps spaced up to 16 feet apart on my 7 yr old house.
Outside of new construction, is this something that HI's should be inspecting for? Should it be on the clients report?
