ᐅ Concrete slab completed – construction supervisor unavailable

For us, two things were important:
1. Before pouring the concrete for each (slab/floor slab), the structural engineer inspected and approved the reinforcement (confirmed in writing), and
2. we needed the concrete delivery tickets.

Both were required to be presented to the building authority for the structural inspection.

This makes sense. If the steel reinforcement is correctly positioned and the concrete is poured within the allowed timeframe, there is less room for errors. Unless the workers didn’t use a concrete vibrator and the concrete wasn’t properly compacted. But at that point, nothing can really be changed anymore.
If you want to be sure, have the structural engineer or another expert come and test the concrete with a rebound hammer.

@ypg yes, ours was there as well, along with the structural engineer for inspection.
Or rather, not during the pouring but when placing the reinforcement.

Ours was also on site. The report is in our records.

On our site, the building owner himself was present.[emoji3]

Hello,
In Hesse, it is mandatory for the reinforcement to be approved by a structural engineer. Elsewhere, no one approves the reinforcement, and there is no obligation to do so.
If you do not trust your building partner at all, you can hire an independent building expert who will supervise the construction project until completion.
The foundation slab is already cast in concrete, right? What exactly do you or the supervisor want to achieve?

Best regards

What became of it?
Do you have a new construction manager now?
