OVERVIEW OF THE COURSE

This is a one day course



This course will take learners through a practical tour of PG Warranty’s guidance around installing timber frames on homes, with a focus on the correct build process.

Your PG Warranty trainer will outline the common types of timber frame construction, highlighting the main problematic areas during construction that lead to defects or claims.

Learners will then explore the typical common defects found on timber-frame construction sites, which are usually the result of a poor understanding of how timber interacts with other construction materials and techniques.

Attendees will also be guided through the typical standards that must be met when building timer-framed homes, and how to align with the standards laid out in the PG  Warranty Technical Manual, and how these standards minimize the chance of defects or claim-generating problems.

Throughout the session, your trainer will also offer guidance on how to prepare for a pre-handover inspection, and how to ensure inspections are completed successfully and efficiently.

Construction contract managers

Clerks of works

Clerk of Works

Anyone involved in the building, management, or inspection of timber-framed homes
