When building a new house, it is critical to engage with a professional structural engineer to conduct construction site inspections to ensure that engineering plans and building regulations are implemented correctly by the builder at all stages of the construction work.

We start our investigation by reviewing the engineering plans to ascertain compliance with project requirements. Any concerns regarding the computations, plans, details or specifications will be liaised with the engineer of the builder and rectified if required.

The first site inspection is conducted after formwork of footings are completed and ready to be inspected before pouring the concrete. We will make sure that all specifications and details were followed correctly and any failure is rectified before builder pours concrete.

Second site inspection will be after the wall framing of ground floor was set. This important stage confirms that all frames were built in accordance with plans and specifications. mistakes can be easily rectified before building the floor above.

Third and last site visit is after the first floor is completed including erection of the roof trusses. At this site inspection the entire house will be inspected to make sure all bracing walls, beams, columns, etc. were installed in accordance with the engineering plans and specifications.
