piers

Found this in the crawl space. Not sure what to write. It doesn’t look like the addition is bolted to the existing stucture and the pier has shifted. What would you write?

unless you’re in a seismic area…
INFORMATIVE
“Structural framing of the addition did not appear to be bolted to the foundation as is required in modern building practice.”

NEEDS ATENTION
“A structural support in the crawlspace did not appear to be professionally installed and has shifted. I recommend taking measures to ensure the long-term stability of this support. Before your Inspection Objection Deadline [Colorado] you may wish to consult with a foundation contractor to determine options and costs for correction.”

Was that girder laying down flat on its side or standing up on its edge?
Insulation has the wrong side down too.
…born to nitpick…
