CSD Explained
Commercial Structural Defects insurance is a product specifically designed to provide indemnity to Licensed Commercial Builders for any legal liability that arises due to a structural defect in a building they have completed.
Structural damage covered could include:
- Cracking of a warehouse concrete slab requiring reconstruction of the slab;
- Deterioration in the fixing points of tilt slab factory walls requiring rectification and/or replacement;
- Collapse of a roof structure due to insufficient reinforcement or design;
- Incorrect specification of the concrete poured or the mortar used on block wall construction;
- Movement or heaving in a slab due to incorrect design/construction of the footings; and
- Concrete cancer caused by deterioration of the steel reinforcement.
