There is a structural engineer that is used by the architect to design the supports and make sure that the house will not fall down. Once the house is framed, the structural engineer comes by to inspect the work to make sure that it matches his design and code. In our case, he will come by twice, once to inspect the roof, which needs to be done before roof insulation is added (which happens real soon now), and once to inspect the rest of the house (I think after the basement slab is poured).

Today was the roof inspection. Good news, we passed. Here is the relevant section of his letter.
