San Marino, California
Full-service special inspection for San Marino projects.
ASI provides reinforced concrete, structural masonry, structural steel and welding, post-installed anchor and epoxy-dowel special inspection in San Marino, along with all other special inspection types required by approved project documents. San Marino projects are matched with a qualified special inspector for the required inspection type and jurisdiction.
Full-service inspection coverage
Four core inspection types—and qualified coverage beyond them.
ASI’s four core service groups are reinforced concrete, structural masonry, structural steel and welding, and post-installed anchors and epoxy dowels. ASI also provides all other required special inspection types by assigning qualified special inspectors whose certifications or approvals match the project scope and San Marino jurisdiction requirements.
Reinforced concrete
Reinforcement, concrete placement, slump and temperature testing, and strength specimens when required by the approved documents.
View inspection type →Structural masonry
Reinforcing steel, masonry construction, grout placement, and sampling or testing when required by the approved documents.
View inspection type →Structural steel and welding
Structural-steel erection, welding and high-strength bolting matched to the required qualifications and jurisdiction.
View inspection type →Post-installed anchors and epoxy dowels
Adhesive anchors, epoxy-set reinforcing dowels and mechanical anchors checked against the approved plans, product report and installation requirements.
View inspection type →San Marino-specific guidance
City inspection and special inspection are separate responsibilities.
San Marino provides its own building-inspection request process through the Community Development Department. That municipal inspection does not replace a special inspection required by the approved plans, Statement of Special Inspections, permit conditions or applicable code. ASI reviews the project documents and assigns the qualified special inspector for that additional scope; the City inspection must still be requested separately.

Is a special inspector the same as the San Marino building inspector?
No. The San Marino building inspector performs the City’s required inspections. A qualified special inspector performs the additional inspections identified by the approved plans, Statement of Special Inspections, permit conditions and applicable code. A project may require both.
Does ASI provide every special inspection type in San Marino?
ASI is a full-service special inspection company. In addition to its four core service groups, ASI assigns qualified special inspectors for other required inspection types based on the scope, required certifications or approvals, jurisdiction, location and availability.
Can ASI inspect epoxy dowels and post-installed anchors in San Marino?
Yes. ASI provides special inspection for adhesive anchors, epoxy-set reinforcing dowels and mechanical anchors when required by the approved plans, Statement of Special Inspections, permit conditions or product evaluation report. Required installation steps must remain accessible for inspection.
Does ASI request the San Marino City inspection?
No. San Marino City inspections are requested separately through the City’s online inspection-request system. ASI schedules the qualified special inspector for the project’s required special-inspection scope.
What should I send ASI?
Send the San Marino project address, permit number, approved plans, requested inspection type, date and start time, and the field contact’s name and mobile number. For concrete, include the cubic yardage and type of pour.
Should the approved plans be available during inspection?
Yes. Keep the approved plans, applicable details and other required project documents available at the jobsite. The special inspector needs them to verify the work against the approved requirements; the City building inspector may also need the approved documents for the City inspection.
