Construction Verification Methods: NCC Compliance Report

This report examines construction verification methods, emphasizing their role in ensuring building quality and compliance with the National Construction Code (NCC). It defines verification methods as calculations and tests that confirm solutions meet working requirements. The report highlights 'A TEST' as a key method, substantiating that construction materials meet performance standards. It discusses various testing applications, including damage checks, quality control, and material verification (timber, sand, concrete, bricks, and ballast). The report concludes that testing is essential for ensuring that construction meets the required standards and uses ecologically friendly materials, underscoring the importance of these methods in the building and construction industry.

CONSTRUCTION VERIFICATION METHODS
The verification method is a term used to refer to calculations and tests that are used to show a
different way that a solution conforms with the appropriate working requirements especially in
the National Construction Code(NCC). Methods of verification entail a benchmark that can be
quantified and a criterion that is acceptable in ensuring that the solution is attained (Sifakis,
2014).
The most notable example of a verification method is known as A TEST. This is a verification
method that substantiates that construction or the materials used meets the required performance
standard. It is used to show the required level of performance required for a particular product.
Testing helps in ascertaining whether the materials used meet the required legislative rule and is
also part of the quality control system (Doron Peled, 2011).
When construction is taking place, a test can be done by checking for damage to the materials
that are to be used for construction (Tiziana Margaria, 2014). It can also be done to verify the
quality of materials that are delivered so as to know whether the quality and quantity are at per
with the price of the materials. Testing also ensures that the right chemicals are used in their
appropriate measures and that the physical appearances of the materials are in the appropriate
order (Daniel Geist, 2015). Testing can be done on different construction materials such as
timber, sand, concrete, bricks and even ballast.

In conclusion, testing is very essential in building and construction since it helps in ensuring that
the construction that is done is of the required standard and the materials that are used are
ecologically friendly.
