Projects & Services - Reports
SIGA provides site inspections including a visual inspection and discussions
with involved parties on site to examine existing structure(s) and document
areas of concern.
The intension is to identify structural or safety concerns and potential
remedial action required. The results of the visual inspection and site
discussions are subsequently summarised in a structural report.
The reason for a problem is usually readily identifiable and is discussed on
site, as well as the recommended remedial action. The subsequent report further
provides the added reassurance of a record of the discussions.
Structural reports are provided for a variety of clients (and of course
owners of Industrial, Commercial or Industrial premises) including:
- Strata Managers
- Local Councils
- Insurance Companies
- Domestic and Commercial Real Estate Agents
- Maintenance Contractors
The following are examples of projects where structural reports where required
by our clients.

rectification works. Pedestrian access of the walkway during the
repairs needed to be considered as was flooding to the weir when it
rains!
The SIGA Solution
Determining suitable solutions and material with the builder
to cater for the submerged environment that the repairs would be
exposed to.
