Construction-stage support

Keeping the structure as designed while it is built: answering site queries, inspecting reinforcement before it is covered, and recording what was built.

Deliverables

  • Responses to site queries and requests for information, with revised details where needed
  • Inspection of reinforcement, formwork and bearing strata before concreting
  • Review of the contractor's proposals, method statements and temporary works
  • As-built records and structural completion reports where we are the engineer of record

Sectors

Codes

  • BS 8110-1:1997
  • BS 8004:1986 (foundations)

A design is only as good as what is built from it. We visit at the stages that matter: the foundation excavation, the reinforcement of each element before it is covered, the striking of formwork, and any point where the contractor proposes a change.

Queries are answered in writing with a sketch where words are not enough, and every change is carried back into the drawings so the as-built record is true.
