Structural Intergirty of CMU wall after a fire.
Structural Intergirty of CMU wall after a fire.
(OP)
Hello,
I have a friend who is a home inspector but is also getting into commercial inspections. He has been asked to look at a CMU wall that has been on a fire and was wondering what he should be looking for to determine if the wall is still OK or should be replaced.
Thank you

Tell him not to recommend something he isn't sure about, he could be held accountable. A lot of the time (for us anyways) an inspector will go out, realize he's over his head, and recommend a structural/forensic engineer to come look at it.
