HOW TO KEEP YOUR BUILDING INSPECTOR HAPPY 101
Ever wonder why buildings fail building inspections? Why do most finals take 2 or 3 goes at it to get it
right? What checklists do building inspector use when they are checking your work? Come to this
stimulating, informative presentation by Rosemary who has worked alongside building inspectors and
compliance officers for over 20 years. They have seen it all and she is prepared to share what she has
learned from them
BUILDING DISPUTES AND HOW TO REDUCE YOUR RISK OF BEING SUED 101
The last 15 years has seen a large number of legal claims made against building professionals including
builders, architects, Councils, engineers, project managers, developers, product manufacturers,
plasterers, tilers, roofers, cladders, painters/ texture coaters, plumbers, water proofers and fire
engineers. Anyone involved in the construction industry can be caught up in a legal claim, which has
the potential to have major implications for their business and personal life. Do you want to learn
from the mistakes of others and reduce your risk of being sued?
RECOGNISING DEFECTS 101
What does the Building Amendment Act mean to me? Do you need a refresher of the rules? Do you
have a good understanding of what is, and what is not, a defect? What is a defect? What does this
mean for main and subcontractors? This workshop briefly covers the sections of the Act which
describe this new requirement.
SEISMIC COURSE FOR NON ENGINEERS (FULL DAY)
The Canterbury Earthquakes that occurred in 2010 and 2011 highlighted one thing very clearly. When
a major event occurs in a large populated centre there will always be a shortage of skilled experienced
personnel to meet the needs of the people living in those areas — certainly in the short-term. The
resulting programme will enable participants to assist, or work under the guidance of, the engineering
profession should or when another event of this nature occurs, or assist with other activities such as,
for example, the assessment of earthquake prone buildings.
