We have had an independent engineer assess our home build. The outcome of this independent assessment is that the original engineers design plans were not inline with standards and also materials recommended to be used in the construction have not been available for greater than 6yrs. The builder is also in question for not questioning the engineer about the materials being recommended.
My question is , what course of action do we have against the engineer given his plans (which the builder built to) do not meet the standards and according to the expert witness engineer the structure needs to be demolished.
When we engaged the engineer he was registered with the institute of engineers
Thanks in advance for your advice
