THE STRUCTURES COUNCILS & CONTRACTORS DEPEND ON
THE CHALLENGE
WHAT WE HEAR MOST OFTEN
INFRASTRUCUTRE THAT MUST STAND & PEFORM YEAR AFTER YEAR.
BUILDING ACT IQP INSPECTIONS
Lifts (SS8), escalators, cable cars (SS16), Building Maintenance Units (SS10), and supporting specified systems — annual reporting that must be timely, accurate, and lodged correctly.
STRUCTURAL ASSESSEMENTS ON EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE
Bridges, retaining walls, water tanks, pump stations, communications structures — where age, modification, or seismic re-rating means the original design is no longer the controlling document.
PRESSURE EQUIPMENT & LIFTING ON CIVIL SITES
Cranes and lifting infrastructure where statutory inspection cycles must be tracked and demonstrated to the regulator — across multiple sites, multiple asset owners.
