CIA | Newcastle Building Blitz – Building Commission NSW Updates

13 August @ 2:00 pm - 5:30 pm AEST

Description

ACRA is a supporting partner of this Face to Face event.

Building Commission NSW recently conducted a Building Blitz, uncovering defects in 12 buildings across Sydney, Newcastle, the Central Coast, and Wollongong. This initiative is part of an ongoing effort to ensure high construction standards and protect future residents.

Guided by intelligence, inspectors targeted 20 Class 2 (apartment) buildings under construction that were identified as higher risk. While the defects found can be rectified and do not pose an immediate public safety risk, Building Commission NSW has acted swiftly, issuing orders to ensure all issues are resolved before residents move in.

The commission will continue monitoring these projects through to completion, reinforcing accountability and quality in the industry. As part of its commitment to safer buildings, the concrete audit program is expanding to target more regions across NSW. Matt Press, Assistant Building Commissioner, and Rumman Waquas, Manager Building Compliance will share updates on the latest changes
