Structural Issues for Home Inspectors Book

The purpose of this publication is to help prepare the home inspector in the proper methods of observing and reporting on the structural components and their condition in a residential dwelling.

This is not an engineering manual, nor does it provide an inspector with the means to conduct a structural evaluation, as that is a process that typically requires the involvement of a licensed professional engineer or architect.

This book is also a handy, on-the-job reference manual, as well as a study guide for InterNACHI’s related online course and final exam.
