Code does not by itself make it safe.....

Code inspections cut the legal responsibility for the contractor.

End of subject.

Not really true at all. In fact most inspectors have sovereign
immunity but the contractors don't.
That means if you want to sue the inspector, you are really trying to
sue the government. The contractor is still wide open to actions. The
fact that an inspector did not find a violation does not insulate the
contractor from a negligence suit. That is why they usually have E&O
insurance.
