Browse Forums Building Standards; Getting It Right! Re: Hole in new slab - please help 4Dec 16, 2015 3:26 pm KKPP Thank you very much Gunna, We had also tried to get the site supervisor to the site to have a look at it together with us, however our site supervisor refused to accompany us on site saying he is too busy and he already came to the site on the day the slab was poured, and also we are not allowed to go to site by ourselves alone. I do understand that the site supervisor is busy and probably do look after around 17-18 sites. As we are still at early stage of building our house and try to work out how to deal with our site supervisor in the best way. What I am trying to understand is whether the site supervisor has the obligation/responsibility to accompany us and look at something and explain to us in case we feel somethings are not right, or it is at his discretion and up to him decide whether there is a need to accompany us to the site? I would assume it is common practice after each stage (such as slab, frame etc), we will be offered to walk the site along the site supervisor? Am I making wrong assumption or asking too much? Thanks very much It's your house, not his. It's your build not his. His company is contracted to you! Advise them to stop the build until you verify with an independent inspector and also give written notice of a date and time to meet on site to discuss your concerns. CC in your contact at head office. Do you have paperwork showing your slab design? edit: Looking closer it seems they haven't included your alfresco area in to the main slab design so they have poured your slab and then the alfresco is a secondary pour. I would have expected to see signs of rebar as well in the corner but others more qualified might be able to comment. Re: Hole in new slab - please help 5Dec 16, 2015 4:39 pm Hi Gunna, Thanks for your tips, What is the slab design? Does it show how the slab supposed to be poured? Do you know where would I be able to get it from? I did go through CDC by the way. Thanks very much Thanks for your advice. So far i have not noticed any issues with doors and windows. Builder advised they will organise drainers to inspect 2 weeks ago but no further… 7 19135 canβt tell from the photo, a tie down rod will be 12mm, is it a steel beam? he should be able to work it out 1 4520 13 6721 |
