Re: Frame standards? 13Apr 18, 2010 9:09 am I needed a copy of the structural engineering for the frame and bracing so Alex the building surveyor can do his inspection. I was told by Carlisle unless its a double storey engineers no longer do a structural report or plan for frames. Instead all frames for single storey are built according to section 16 84 of the building code Does anyone know anything about this ? or have a copy of the section 1684 re frame & standards. Subsequently I found out the Truss and frame manufacturer is the source that can provide me with this info. If I dont get this info prior to the inspection ,Iam wondering if its a worthwhile getting one because how will he know where the bracing is supposed to go etc? each house is different.
