Method statement
When required?
To accompany applications for the conversion of a traditional building, when a Structural Survey is not identified as necessary.
What is required?
A short report, which has been prepared by a builder or person of relevant competence, specifically addressing the following:
- The condition of the building.
- Confirmation that the proposed works (new openings, removal of roof etc.) will not so weaken the structure that the walls shown to be retained will need to be taken down during construction.
- Details of the method of construction that will ensure the above does not happen.
