 An engineering compliance inspection is a process in which a qualified inspector examines an engineering project, such as a building or structure, to ensure that it meets certain standards and regulations. The inspector will look for things like proper design, safe construction, and adherence to local building codes. The goal of the inspection is to make sure that the project is safe and suitable for its intended use.

 An engineering condition assessment is a thorough examination of a building or structure to determine its current condition and assess its ability to continue operating safely and efficiently. This assessment typically includes visual inspections, measurements, and testing to gather data on the condition of the structure being assessed. The information gathered during the assessment is then used to identify any issues or problems and make recommendations for repairs or maintenance to keep the item in safe working order. The goal of an engineering condition assessment is to identify potential issues before they become serious problems and to ensure that the structure can continue operating as intended.

A dilapidation report is a document that describes the condition of a property, usually a building, before construction or demolition work is carried out. The report typically includes photographs and descriptions of any damage or defects that are present on the property, as well as an assessment of the overall condition of the property. This information can be used to help protect the property owner's interests, and to ensure that any damage caused during the construction or demolition work is properly documented and repaired.

A structural forensic engineering assessment is a type of investigation that is used to determine the cause of failure or damage to a building or other type of structure. This assessment typically involves a detailed examination of the structure, including its design, construction, and maintenance history, as well as an analysis of the materials and techniques used in its construction. The goal of a structural forensic engineering assessment is to identify the root cause of the failure or damage and to recommend steps that can be taken to prevent similar problems in the future.

A structural insurance investigation is a process in which an insurance company looks into the structural integrity and safety of a building or other structure that has been damaged. This investigation is typically conducted after a natural disaster, such as a hurricane or earthquake, or after an incident such as a fire or flood. The goal of the investigation is to determine the cause of the damage and the extent of the repairs that will be needed, in order to determine how much the insurance company should pay to cover the repairs.

An engineering moisture entry investigation is a process in which experts examine a building or structure to determine how and why moisture is entering it. This typically includes assessing the condition of the roof, walls, and foundation. The goal is to identify the source of the moisture and recommend solutions to prevent it from continuing to enter the building. This may include things like repairing or replacing damaged roofing, sealing cracks or gaps in the walls, or installing a new drainage system. The overall goal of this investigation is to find a solution to the moisture problem and prevent it from causing any further damage to the building.

A pre-purchase structural inspection is a type of inspection that is done before someone buys a property. It is used to check for any structural issues or problems with the building, such as cracks in the foundation or problems with the roof. The inspector will look at the overall condition of the building and identify any potential issues that need to be addressed before the sale is complete. This is an important step for anyone buying a property, as it can help them understand any potential issues and make an informed decision about whether to proceed with the purchase.

Engineering project management is the process of planning, organizing, and controlling resources to achieve specific goals and meet project requirements for an engineering project. This includes managing the project budget, schedule, and scope, as well as coordinating the work of different team members and stakeholders. The goal of engineering project management is to deliver a project on time, within budget, and to the satisfaction of all stakeholders.

Settlement and subsidence refer to the sinking or settling of a home's foundation into the ground. This can happen over time due to a variety of factors, such as soil shifting or changes in the moisture content of the soil. If not addressed, settlement and subsidence can cause damage to the structure of the home and make it unsafe to live in. Some common signs that a home may be experiencing settlement or subsidence include:

• Cracks in the walls, floors, or foundation 
• Doors and windows that stick or won't close properly 
• Gaps between the walls and ceilings or floors 
• Uneven or sloping floors 
• Bowing or leaning walls 
• Cracks in the brick or masonry 

An experienced inspector or structural engineer can help determine the cause of these symptoms and recommend the appropriate course of action.

A basic building scope of works is a document that outlines the specific tasks and materials required for repair or replacement of a failed structure. It includes details about what the builder or contractor is responsible for, including excavation, foundation work, framing, and finishing work such as painting and flooring. This document is used to ensure that all parties involved in the construction project are on the same page and understand what is expected of them.
