Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Retaining Wall Issue 5Apr 25, 2017 1:29 pm It's to do with adding weight to a compromised structure. It's understandable that your builder doesn't want to continue until the area is retained and supported, but retaining walls and neighbours are complicated, and the legislations and engineering specs differ from state to state. This is an SA law handbook, NSW will be slightly different but I would be googling your options. Otherwise you could ping one of the guys on here such as: structuralBIMguy http://www.lawhandbook.sa.gov.au/ch31s04.php Thank you again Simeon.. I will call my certifier for that. Have a good day 4 5194 thanks Chippy, i hope they have applied sealer but i am doubt to be honest, so i am gonna do this job after handover. 8 16286 Thanks for the insights, that makes perfect sense, and yeah, I will be leaning on the experience of the excavator operator entirely. 6 16149 |
