About building defects and remediation
As we previously discussed in our blog on failing buildings, it’s very clear that the quality of construction in Australia is lacking – and it’s directly led to increased insurance liability claims for issues including defective cladding, poor workmanship, water damage and increased fire risk.
While the Government has introduced stricter reforms around Building Codes, the remedial industry has boomed. Remediation has its difficulties however in terms of property access, the need to work around existing occupiers, the necessity to match existing construction, surfaces and finishes, compliance issues, and the potential relocation of tenants… which can make it very expensive.
This webinar brings together these issues, with a focus on what goes wrong during construction and how architects, builders, trades and suppliers can work together to minimise defects.
Questions to be covered
- How does the complex building environment influence early design decisions that lead to typical defects?
- How can we change developer mindset from price driven goals to quality outcomes?
- What are the fundamentals of concrete repair and what are the remedial options?
- Clean, Compact, Cover and Cure… why are these the most important words in the remedial concrete world?
- Why in 2020 is waterproofing still one of the most prevalent causes of HBCF claims?
- Does the current standard for external waterproofing give reasonable guidance to achieve a deemed to satisfy solution, as required by the NCC/BCA?
- What are the key “must dos” in terms of on site preparation for waterproofing systems – what is the role of the project manager in this?
- How do we best train builders in on site processes and material selection to ensure quality outcomes over cost and speed?
