What construction stages should be inspected, as a minimum, for a one-off house?

Share

A sample Inspection Plan for a one-off house comprises the following stages:

  1. Design

  2. Formation

  3. Foundation

  4. Ground Floor

  5. Wall Plate Level

  6. Roof Level

  7. Completion

An Inspection Plan is dependent on many factors, including:

  • building type and construction type

  • construction method

  • the seriousness of the consequences of a particular contravention

  • the impracticability or impossibility of subsequent inspection of closed up work

  • construction speed

  • stakeholder experience and competency
