TR-8 energy-code progress inspection
A New York City filing and sign-off framework for required energy-code progress inspections. Applicable inspection categories and responsibilities depend on the approved project filing.
Why it matters
A filing record, an inspection visit, and completed sign-off are distinct milestones. The project team should track required observations and supporting records while the relevant work remains accessible. Commissioning and progress inspections may be separate scopes.
In practice
A project example
An assembly that will soon be concealed needs the required observation coordinated before close-in; final paperwork cannot substitute for missing field evidence.
