25.01.2022 Battleaxe subdivisions, which require a new driveway to run along a side boundary, must consider the impact from light vehicle surcharge. The additional pressure from the weight of a vehicle will often cause existing retaining walls to lean excessively. When this occurs, structural failure is inevitable. If you are concerned about the structural integrity of a retaining wall on your property, contact us for an inspection.

21.01.2022 During our building inspections, a common occurrence is the proximity of trees to existing building foundations. Trees in close proximity to foundations can have an adverse effect on the footings or foundations and can cause structural cracking among other issues. Our recommendation is to install an engineered tree root barrier made from concrete or other impermeable materials such as a fibre cement sheet wrapped in plastic and inserted to a depth greater than the surface roo...t system of the appropriate tree. . Together with annual tree inspection, this approach will achieve a good balance between preserving the unique aesthetic & practical benefits from having the trees while ensuring that the home is not adversely affected. . . #rbcperth #buildinginspectorsperth #buildinginspectorperth #buildinginspectionsperth #financebrokerperth #perthrealestateagents #realestateaustralia #mortgagebrokerperth #perthbuildinginspections #perthbuildinginspectors #perthpropertymarket #perthbuilders #pertharchitecture #perthsmallbusiness #perthhomes #perthrealestateagent #perthrealestate #perthproperty #realestateperthwa #realestateperth #propertyperth #settlementagentperth #perthbusiness #structuralengineers #perthbusinesswomen #perthbusinesses #buildinginspector #buildinginspection #structuralinspectionperth

15.01.2022 A retaining wall is a structure which requires structural engineering design and construction consideration to resist the lateral pressure of soil. A retaining wall may also be required to support a structure or boundary, or simply for landscaping or aesthetic purposes. Retaining walls are often constructed from concrete panels, limestone or masonry blocks. Our latest blog article on retaining walls provides some good guidance on design and construction requirements. During ...pre purchase structural inspections, it is not uncommon to find retaining walls that are in a state of failure or serviceability failure (for example when a retaining wall is leaning and exceeds the required tolerances). We have extensive expertise in designing, supervising construction and inspecting various types of retaining walls. Our team is looking forward to assisting you with certified structural engineering details & structural building inspections in Perth & the South West.
