Building Dispute Practitioners Society On Morayfield slabs we keep recording the same three things: steel too close to the form, mesh left sagging between chairs, and steps in the slab with no reinforcement extended past them. Inspectors check structural timbers in new builds. They look for steel connections that do not match drawings. They check joist hangers fit the timber correctly. They also look for double beams that are not uniform. Lock-up stage checks ensure safety. Inspectors verify that gas lines and cables do not touch hot water pipes or steel. We will inspect the work as it happens so issues can be fixed before the next stage.

A slab stage inspection looks at the concrete base, while a frame stage checks the timber or steel structure before the roof goes on.
A dropped slab level usually requires extra reinforcement set in a specific distance from the edge. We have recorded them missing on Morayfield pours, which the engineer then has to review.
