Building Dispute Resolution

Rickard Engineering has been providing engineering diagnostic services in Australia since 1984 and maintains strong ongoing relationships within the public sector, particularly with the NSW Department of Education.

On average, Rickard Engineering inspects one school each calendar week. Rectification of cracking in older buildings requires a pragmatic approach, combined with a sound understanding of soil mechanics as they relate to masonry and timber-framed structures.

Rickard Engineering also assesses residential strata matters where the enquiry relates specifically to engineering. This experience is invaluable when evaluating the causes of building defects that become the subject of building disputes.
