reviewing/stamping calculations done by others
reviewing/stamping calculations done by others
(OP)
my company has another office in another state. their only civil engineer left. he stamped the drawings but not the calculations before he left.
the city/jurisdiction where the project is located hired a private third party inspector to review the drawings and calculations.
i'm guessing the city doesn't have in-house inspector on payroll.
this third party inspector commented to have the calculation stamped as well.
i was asked to review the calculation and make correction, if any, and stamp it.
this is ok, no?

I would say at this point you would have to completely review and re-check all the calculations and plans, verifying them fully and sign/seal both.
Alternatively, find the original engineer and ask (pay?) them to seal their own calculations as a matter of course. They produced them after all.
