Buildings, roads, bridges, and utility systems must all be erected or restored in accordance with various building and safety rules. Building and construction inspectors ensure that these codes are obeyed. 

The majority of inspectors work for the federal, state, and local governments. Inspectors begin work when a project begins and conduct follow-up inspections throughout the project to ensure code compliance. 

Computers, cameras, test equipment, and surveying tools may be used by inspectors. They keep track of their efforts and produce reports. If a project site is unable to fix a code violation in a reasonable amount of time, a government inspector can issue a stop order and close the site down until the violation is corrected. 

Inspectors frequently operate in groups on huge tasks requiring specialised skills. Electrical, plumbing, elevator, and mechanical systems are evaluated by inspectors with relevant experience. 

Inspectors are typically older, seasoned individuals who have worked as a manager, supervisor, or trade worker for many years. Individuals should also be well-versed in construction materials and processes. To stroll and climb around job sites, you must be physically fit. Civil service exams are required for government inspectors. 

Construction and building inspectors provide a vital public service by ensuring the safety of buildings, roads, and other structures.
