Practice notes / practitioner edition

Notes from the job, not the textbook.

Inspection method, reporting practice and defect diagnosis, written for the surveyor doing the work rather than the client reading the result. Where something is a matter of judgement rather than rule, these notes say so.

The first notes

Nothing published yet.

The first practice notes are being written and none is published yet. Rather than fill this page with rewritten standards, the notes will go up as the casework they come from is finished. If there is a reporting question you want answered first, say which one.

Built in practice, not in a product meeting.

Surveyology is written by surveyors while they survey. If an entry would save you an evening, say which one — the library grows in the order it gets asked for.
