$120.00 AUD ext GST
Building defects are a central issue in construction law and property litigation. Across Australia, failures in fire safety systems have led to significant legal and financial consequences for building professionals, owners and occupiers. From faulty fire doors to defective sprinklers, hydrant, or detection systems, these failures can result in regulatory enforcement orders, costly litigation, and life-threatening risks.
This course provides a practical overview of fire safety-related building defects commonly found in multi-residential and commercial developments. Participants will learn about active and passive fire safety measures, how defects are identified, statutory obligations, the difference between construction defects and maintenance issues and how to respond appropriately to a Defects Notice or Fire Safety Order.
