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
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
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
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
Tunnel / Mud trails
Damaged rotting timber
Mud Packing / shelter tubes
Ensure full description and location of hazard specified including recommendations for rectification.
