ICC GR General Requirements Course
General Requirements Course
The General Requirements Exam is designed to evaluate candidates' understanding of basic concepts across different construction disciplines, including building, plumbing, mechanical, and electrical systems. Whether inspecting soils, structural components, or other construction areas, the special inspector ensures compliance with approved plans and building codes. Here's a detailed breakdown.:
Scope of the Exam:
Duties and Responsibilities: Special inspectors review approved plans to ensure compliance with the requirements of the enforcing jurisdiction. They are approved by building officials to operate within their jurisdictions.
Monitoring and Reporting: Inspectors monitor construction activities to ensure they align with the approved plans. In the event of any deviation, they notify the contractor, and if corrections are not made, they escalate the issue to the architect, engineer of record, or building official. Inspectors also submit progress reports detailing tests performed and the work's compliance with the plans.
Knowledge of Building Codes: The exam covers key sections of the International Building Code (IBC), specifically:
Sections 102-104: General provisions, including duties of building officials and enforcement protocols.
Section 1704: Special inspections and testing requirements

Requirements for the ICC Special Inspector General Requirements Course:
None
Credentials are valid for three (3) years and must be renewed on or before the expiration date to remain current.
Accruing CEUs
During the three (3) year period prior to the renewal processing date, you must accrue the number of continuing education units (CEUs) required for your certificate. Renewal is achieved by participating in continuing education and professional development activities. For example, a seminar you attended to earn CEUs must have been within the three (3) years prior to the renewal processing date (when the CEU becomes inactive).
You may renew your credentials at different times, but each renewal date is treated as a separate application. For example, if you have six credentials and renew two certifications on X date and four certifications on Y date, you must have 3.0 CEUs for X date and a 3.0 additional CEUs for Y date.
Note: You must keep documents and records of each activity during the three (3) year renewal period. CEU applications are subject to random audits. If proof of CEUs cannot be provided, the renewal will be voided and your certifications will revert to their previous status.
