Wet Stamp, Embossed Seal, or both
Wet Stamp, Embossed Seal, or both
(OP)
I was wondering about the PE Stamps/Seals. Can anyone advise if the wet stamp is preferable over the embossed seal or visa versa? Or is it preferable to have both?
I'd appreciate any info you have.

Check with your board and YES this has been discussed numerous times.

I'm also not wondering what the boards allow - the state board for my PE allows either seals or stamps.
I'm looking for other people who have purchased one to describe what they do or do not like about them. I'm happy to read other threads but please post a link so I can find it.
Thanks

Also you cannot photo-copy an embosser or e-mail or fax it which many people now accept.
But the embosser is harder and MUCH slower to use and as I have said - they break!!

Also according to the PA regs, the 1st plan sheet is supposed to be signed and sealed with facsimiles only used on subsequent plan sheets.

When I spoke to the Ohio board's investigator last August about an unrelated issue, I asked her if building officials must not accept as sealed, a set of drawings with only the cover sheet properly sealed when reviewing them as part of a plan review. She advised it is up to the building official, but the board did not see this as a violation of state law.
As said many times on this forum, talk to your state board if you are not clear what the law require.
