A Building Assessor is responsible for inspecting and evaluating buildings to ensure they meet relevant codes, standards, and regulations. This role involves assessing the structural integrity, safety, and compliance of new and existing buildings, often for certification or insurance purposes.
Building Assessors may work with local councils, private certifiers, or insurance companies, and their duties can include preparing detailed reports, advising on necessary repairs or upgrades, and liaising with builders, architects, and engineers.
The role requires a solid understanding of construction methods, building codes, and relevant legislation. Strong attention to detail, analytical skills, and knowledge of risk management are essential to accurately assess a building’s condition and compliance status.
