Members are reminded to check frame and brick overhangs early, particularly before linings, cladding, or wet area works progress.
Where overhangs exceed acceptable tolerances, early consultation with your engineer can often provide a practical rectification detail, such as approved packing, bearing support, or other engineered repair. Addressing the issue early can help avoid unnecessary delays, prevent rework, and keep the project moving while maintaining compliance and structural performance.
Members should ensure any repair method is documented and approved before works continue.
If you’d like support reviewing your processes, please reach out to the MBA ACT team.
