If we could get away from this union jurisdictional thinking it would not be that unreasonable that a steel guy could actually slide an acorn over a piece of rebar, get a #4 on the right side and tighten the bolt.
A structural inspector should be able to handle looking at that.
Unfortunately that is not the way it works, even in a right to work state like Florida.
When I built my pool I ended up with 2 inspectors at virtually every step. One looked at the rebar and another looked at the #8 bonded to it. When I mentioned to the boys on the Fl IEAI board that the same guys tied the rebar and put on the bonding they lost their minds, threatening $500 fines all around if they saw it happen.
