For that purpose, the fit-out had to be partly removed and that is when the fraud was confirmed.
Since the fit-out was already fully installed the government could not inspect anything. My hosts told me about an architect who was imprisoned because he didn’t let the contractor implement the – expensive – earthquake measures his client had paid for and that were required by the government rules. I learned just how strict, during a working visit to Japan. The requirements and inspection rules are strict. By splitting the base building and fit-out it is much easier, for example, when changing the fit-out to check if the base building is still sufficiently earthquake-resistant or should be improved according to the latest findings in earthquake-resistant measures. As a result regularly new insights arise how a structure can be made the most earthquake-resistant. In other words, Japan is regularly hit by major earthquakes. Wikipedia reports: Japan is a volcanic island arc and is among the most seismically active regions in the world. In Japan, this approach already leads to particularly good results and the only occasional discovery that there is something wrong. And if you want to change the fit-out you can do so without damaging the base building. The municipality is not really interested in your bathroom and kitchen, but very much in your safety! Realize both steps in succession and you will never have to adapt the base building again, unless of course you really need a serious extension to your home.

Only after professional inspection and licensing of this base building you start work on the inside, with a lay out, technical installations, kitchen and bathroom (fit-out) and of course the finishing of floors, walls and ceilings. First, you create the structure with roof and façade. The solution to this dilemma is quite simple: split the building process and licensing in two steps. How much extra damage, expenses and loss of time will you face if you need access to the base building after completion for monitoring, inspections or repairs? Simple solution How do you check that all structural measures have been taken and meet the requirements? Especially when the inside of the base building is already neatly hidden behind stucco, panelling and technical installations.
Being a layman, this is exactly the part of the building that you know least about. Are you the owner and occupier then you have to deal directly with this base building. For it is this base building that is being affected by earthquakes.

The key here is the safety of the structure, including the quality of the façade and roof, plus inspecting their safety. When I was a little boy living in the immediate vicinity of the current Langelo field in North Drenthe our refrigerator shook regularly in the night, but not as vehemently as is happening now! How can you make sure that your home and other buildings will become safe again? Even though there is no legislation yet that buildings have to meet and contractors do not really know what to do exactly. The quakes grow in intensity, just like the damage caused and the feeling of insecurity. What do you think about this plan? Unsafe feelingĮarthquakes caused by gas production have been a part of common life in Groningen for many years now. That’s what I strive for in your interest and that of the rest of the Netherlands. In Japan they have applied this principle consequently for many years.
A principle that can save you a lot of money and hassle in the future. Unfortunately they’re all overlooking one very important basic principle.
BRIQS WIKI HOW TO
A reality with big question marks and consequences, because can you still live safely in your home? No you can’t, not without taking action! Government and builders are busy discussing how to tackle these problems, as demonstrated during a recent conference in Groningen.
When you live in Groningen, then this is your daily reality. Cracks in the walls and subsiding façades because of earthquakes.
