STRUCTURAL ISSUES

  • STRUCTURAL CRACKING AND MOVEMENT:
    Structural Cracking and Movement is where non flexible elements of a building break apart forming a crack. Cracks can open or close depending on the forces and movement that caused the cracks.

    Check
    · Roof structures : Concrete roof slabs, masonry, parapets & gable walls
    · Wall structures : Masonry, external render & stucco, internal solid plaster, internal lath & plaster, fibre cement sheeting, rendered wall board, plaster sheet & plasterboard
    · Floor structure : reinforced concrete constructions

Evidence:

  • Movement to building foundations

  • Expansion / cracking (temperature)

  • Changes in load (modifications)

  • Corrosion, impact damage etc.

  • Compaction / settlement (time)

  • STRUCTURAL DEFORMATION
    Structural deformation is the term given to warping, bending, twisting and springiness in structural components of a building.

    Check
    · Roof structures : Roof framing & roofing
    · Wall structures : Framed & masonry construction
    · Floor structure : Suspended concrete slabs, suspended timber ground floors, timber upper floors & stairways

Evidence:

  • Long term water penetration to roof

  • Vertical bowing, bending and collapse of walls

  • Foundation movement

  • Structural dampness
    Structural dampness is where water has been absorbed into a structural element of the building resulting in damage to the structure. Dampness may also cause conditions conducive to other types of structural damage and environments hazardous to health of occupants.

    Check
    · Wall Structure : Ceilings, internal walls, external walls
    · Floor Structure : Suspended floors, slab-on-ground

Evidence:

  • Surface staining

  • Lifting finishes i.e. paint peeling

  • Crystallisation (white furry coating) of surfaces

  • Sub floor odours

  • Structural timber pest damage
    Timber in service as structural components of a building can be damaged by timber pests. The damage can range from localised damaged to major damage which can affect the integrity of the building and may result in dangerous situations.

    Check
    · Termites, timber borers and fungal decay
    · Ant caps missing
    · Wood / organic material abutting house
    · Garden beds blocking weep holes
    · Direct timber contact with soil

Evidence:

  • Tunnel / Mud trails

  • Damaged rotting timber

  • Mud Packing / shelter tubes
