Condition Report: Construction Materials Fail in Brunswick Building

Document Content and Description Below

You need to prepare a condition report which illustrates and describes the above. This report is intended for the owner of the building. How you collect and present this information is up to you, bu... t the following is some guidance:  If possible, choose buildings for which construction drawings are available. You may need to refer to these to understand a particular construction detail or problem.  Where ever you go, look out for and be aware of the way in which materials are used.  Be critical of the materials that have been used in particular locations (e.g. was the choice of material appropriate?)  If materials have deteriorated unduly why do you think this been the case?  Investigate each example critically. You will NOT earn marks for identifying, for example, rot in a timber window unless you suggest WHY this has occurred and HOW it could have been prevented. [Show More]
