Browse Forums Building Standards; Getting It Right! 1 Mar 01, 2017 12:48 am Hi, I'm new to this forum. I am building a house in Beckenham, WA. It comes to my attention that the builder I am building with does not do the crossover. My question is: is it mandatory to develop the crossover? I have mountable kerb in front of my property. Can I leave it as is?

Thank you, I will give the council a call.

Why....Builders aren't interested in lowering (PS) costs as it lowers their potential profits & it's easier for them to shift & blame engineering IMO..Clients/homeowners are getting Sick & Tired of cost blowouts attributed to engineering after they have paid initial deposits in good faith....my advice is to sort out the engineering and make informed decisions beforehand Designer,Engineer (Civil,Const & Envir),Builder,Concrete & Masonry Contract.Struct Repairs a good choice would be to pay for relocation , because as kvazer said it depends on your council regulations. is a great place if you're looking to do that. 2 3559 thank you! do we need to get this or our builder before we commence new build on the block? 2 4420 You can really use anything you want the main consideration would be how it looks once painted/finished - or the look you want. Cabinetmakers use MDF because its cheap… 2 6648 |
