21-56.1106. CERTIFICATION OF STANDARD DESIGN PLANS

Standard design plans must initially be prepared and sealed by a Professional Engineer properly licensed in the state of origin of such plans.

Standard design plans may then be reviewed by a North Carolina Professional Engineer for code conformance, design adequacy, and site adaption for the specific application within North Carolina. The Professional Engineer who is licensed in North Carolina assumes responsibility for such standard designs. Standard plans, which bear the seal of a Professional Engineer who is licensed in another state, shall be sealed by the North Carolina resident Professional Engineer who is assuming responsibility. In addition to the seal, a statement should be included as follows: "These plans have been properly examined by the undersigned. I have determined that they comply with existing local North Carolina codes, and have been properly site adapted for use in this area."
