Milestone inspections (SB-4D)
Florida's statewide milestone inspection program requires qualifying multi-story buildings to be inspected by a licensed engineer on a defined schedule. Airavata performs the structural milestone inspection and prepares the sealed report.
A milestone inspection is separate from county recertification, and a building may owe both. We confirm whether your building qualifies and what phase applies before starting.

Common questions
Milestone inspections (SB-4D), FAQ
What buildings need a milestone inspection in Florida?
The statewide program applies to qualifying multi-story buildings on a defined schedule set by statute and local enforcement. Whether your building qualifies depends on its height, age, and location; we confirm before starting.
What is the difference between Phase 1 and Phase 2?
Phase 1 is a visual structural inspection. If it identifies substantial structural deterioration, a Phase 2 inspection follows to evaluate it further. Most buildings needing only Phase 1 receive a sealed report at that stage.
