Residential buildings — particularly multi-unit strata developments — face unique structural investigation challenges. Body corporate committees need clear, jargon-free technical reports that support informed capital planning decisions. SiteOps delivers investigation findings in a format accessible to both technical and non-technical audiences.
Common residential investigation scenarios include balcony and common area deterioration, waterproofing failures, facade cracking, car park concrete spalling, and building defect assessment for insurance or legal purposes. Our NDT approach minimises disruption to residents.
SiteOps provides the structural evidence that body corporates, strata managers, and building owners need to make defensible decisions about maintenance expenditure, remediation timing, and long-term capital planning.
Typical challenges
- Minimising disruption to residents
- Communicating findings to non-technical audiences
- Body corporate governance and decision-making processes
- Balcony and common area safety assessment
- Building defect investigation for insurance claims
- Waterproofing failure investigation
