Under French law (Article L241-1 of the Insurance Code), every builder is required to purchase a ten-year insurance policy covering the mandatory decennial warranty on all construction projects. The decennial warranty is a legal liability assumed by builders for all defects that compromise the integrity of their structures or that cause them to ...
In construction contracting, a latent defect is defined as a defect which exists at the time of acceptance but cannot be discovered by a reasonable inspection. [2]In the 1864 US case of Dermott v Jones, the latent defect lay in the soil on which a property had been built, giving rise to problems which subsequently made the house "uninhabitable and dangerous".
An example of how houses in the Philippines must not be built: No structural columns, no extruding column steel reinforcements to secure the roof, cracked walls even during construction phase which is indicative of improper construction materials. As the Philippines lies within the Pacific Ring of Fire where earthquakes and eruptions are more ...
The forms come in different shapes, sizes and are made from different materials depending on the manufacturer. ICF construction has become commonplace for both low rise commercial and high performance residential construction as more stringent energy efficiency and natural disaster resistant building codes are adopted.
A product defect is any characteristic of a product which hinders its usability for the purpose for which it was designed and manufactured. Product defects arise most prominently in legal contexts regarding product safety , where the term is applied to "anything that renders the product not reasonably safe". [ 1 ]
In laminated composites, a clear ringing sound indicates a well bonded material whereas a duller sound indicates the presence of delamination due to the defect dampening the impact. [9] Tap testing is well suited for finding large defects in flat panel composites with a honeycomb core whereas thin laminates may have small defects that are not ...
The Dow Fire and Explosion Index is essentially a measure of inherent danger and is the most widely used quantification of inherent safety. [6] A more specific index of inherently safe design has been proposed by Heikkilä, [1] and variations of this have been published. [18] [19] [20] However all of these are much more complex than the Dow F ...
