The final report serves as a formal documentation method that encompasses all findings and corrections related to discrepancies identified during the inspection process. This report is typically comprehensive and is expected to detail all the relevant information, including the nature of the discrepancies, the corrections made, and the overall compliance status of the structural elements being inspected.

Providing the building official with a final report ensures that there is a clear, traceable record of all communications and amendments related to inspection outcomes. This formal approach is essential in maintaining accountability and ensuring clear communication between inspectors and building officials. Options such as oral communication or email notification lack the formalized structure and permanence that a final report provides, and while an inspection checklist may outline certain items, it usually does not include the detailed corrective actions that need to be documented for the official record. Therefore, the choice of a final report aligns with best practices in construction documentation and regulatory compliance.
