RPG / CASE STUDY 01
Structural remediation and compliance management for a CBD building with basement retention defects.
Royce Projects Group was engaged to manage a complex remediation project after a commercial building was issued with a building notice relating to structural defects in the basement.
This anonymised case study shows how RPG coordinated investigation, consultant input,
procurement and delivery to restore compliance and reduce long-term asset risk.
BUILDING NOTICE &
COUNCIL ORDER REMEDIATION
KEY OUTCOMES
Council notice addressed through a defined remediation pathway
Structural risk reduced through targeted investigation and rectification
Design and construction managed under one coordinated delivery strategy
Long-term asset protection improved
THE CHALLENGE
The building owner needed more than a structural report. The project required a practical pathway to satisfy council, identify the root cause of movement and deliver rectification works that were technically sound and commercially manageable.
WHAT WE DID
RPG coordinated detailed investigations into the basement retention system, engaged structural engineers and worked with specialist consultants to confirm the defect mechanism. Once the scope was clear, we developed the remediation pathway, managed procurement and oversaw contractor engagement so the works could move from compliance risk to structured delivery.
OUTCOME
The project was reframed from a reactive compliance issue into a controlled remediation programme. Council concerns were addressed, the structural risk position improved and the owner gained a practical long-term solution.
