Steel Connection Inspections
Photograph bolted and welded connections and get AI assessments for bolt patterns, weld profiles, edge distances, and connection configurations against applicable standards.
Steel connections, concrete reinforcement, and framing inspections — with jurisdiction-aware structural code lookup and Vision AI assessments against the structural standards you work to and local requirements.
A free workspace for you and two of your crew.
Code Buddy helps structural teams check connections, reinforcement, and framing installations against jurisdiction-specific structural code requirements using AI chat, Vision AI reviews, and built-in reference tools.
Results are AI-generated and should be reviewed by a qualified professional.

Evaluate rebar placement, lap splice lengths, cover, and stirrup spacing before concrete pour — with references to the applicable code provisions.
Assess framing connections, hold-down installation, shear wall nailing patterns, and header sizing against the residential or commercial code your account is equipped with for the seismic and wind zone.
Generate special inspection report drafts with code-referenced observations, helping special inspectors document findings efficiently with proper citations.
Each tool is jurisdiction-aware and built for structural — on the job site, in the office, or offline.

Yes. The Vision AI camera evaluates steel connections, bolt patterns, weld profiles, and member configurations against applicable structural code requirements and referenced standards.
Code Buddy applies the seismic design category for your project location and evaluates connections and detailing against the seismic provisions in whichever code your account is equipped with.
Yes. Code Buddy helps special inspectors evaluate and document observations with cited code references, generating QA report drafts that can accelerate documentation.
