His plans should specify that as well. If not, defer to the code.
I think code says 6' maximum spacing between anchor bolts, anchor bolts have to be within 1' of the ends of the sill plate and a minimum of two per sill plate. I don't remember right off what is says about the size of the bolt.
I love it when we have these construction talks...
Agreed, when moisture leaves concrete shrinkage happens causing micro fractures preferably along the joints occur. These cracks don't affect leveleness or integrity of a slab or walls. I separate that from when a residential says all concrete cracks. They usually mean a very visible crack due to poor slab prep.
BTW, post tension slab on grades are becoming more common in the south east. Suspended one-way and two-way slabs can have very little shrinkage like post tension slabs when the same type of shrinkage and temperature rebar is in the designed, imo. PT is just much cheaper with more head room.

Since when? I have drawn several dozen house plans in the Piedmont of SC that were not required stamped.

Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.

You ain't getting them without stamped structural here. We stray all the time but you got to have them for a permit. Never seen the inspector look for wire or steel in the slab. Most of the time they want to see the soil test which are BS and the bonding. It's all bullshit.

Even commercial is exempt from being stamped if under 5,000 ft. That is why all of the 7-11 stores are 4997 sq. ft.
I did design a house on the coast and builder had to have the foundation/piling drawing stamped. Up here home owners buy internet plans with CIP stem wall foundations for deeper frost lines and builders uses a strip footing and brick veneer curtain wall with cmu piers.
I have drawn new foundation plans to meet code for more studious home owners that wanted everyone quoting apple to apples and builders that wanted the buyer to know what he was building.
Either way drawings can be amended even if zoning has to approve. A buyers is not locked into the approved plans.

The state allows it, but the the municipality has the right to add to the building codes. That is why they are typically operating on an edition that is not the most current. Most are going by IBC 2013 right now when the 2016 edition exists.
Zero. They all crack. Everyone. Some are just more visible than others.
But I am a beginner- I haven't hit a million yards yet.
How many outside ACI standards that would be consider a true crack that require warranty work? Not typical shrinkage within tolerance.
