Defect Analysis
Building water penetration problems are complex and pervasive. A rigorous process is used for determining the optimum method of rectification.
-
Determine the cause of water entry through deconstruction of a typical detail (non-destructive analysis used where appropriate)
-
If required, ascertain legal responsibility for the defect
-
Survey complete building to quantify different mode of ingress, their frequency and location
-
Determine appropriate method of rectification
-
Test assumptions through construction of prototype repairs
-
Compile scope of works and / or specification for execution of the necessary works
