verification & inspection requirements -- IBC vs AISC Chapter N

verification & inspection requirements -- IBC vs AISC Chapter N

verification & inspection requirements -- IBC vs AISC Chapter N

(OP)
verification & inspection requirements -- IBC vs AISC Chapter N

IBC-2009 Chapter 17 had a schedule of special inspections for steel construction in TABLE 1704.3.  This table stated the REQUIRED VERIFICATION AND INSPECTION OF STEEL CONSTRUCTION.

IBC-2012 Chapter 17 states in section 1705.2.1 Structural steel. - Special inspection for structural steel shall be in accordance with the quality assurance inspection requirements of AISC 360.

My question is, where can I find a comparison of the verification and inspection requirements found AISC Chapter N and the old IBC-06 Table 1704.3?  Or just a boiled down version of chapter N with the verification and inspection requirements in table format?

RE: verification & inspection requirements -- IBC vs AISC Chapter N

Here is a webinar in March - somewhat on the topic:

A guy named Bob Shaw puts it on.

A pdf from Modern Steel Construction:

Some letters to the editor from Modern Steel Construction magazine (scroll about 1/3 the way down for a March 2010 letter:

The article that produced the letters:

Not sure if any of this directly provides what you need...just a try.
