📋 Tender Overview
Between March 1 and November 1, 2025, the construction inspection of the RS Inspectorate for Natural Resources and Space (IRSNVP) carried out a coordinated control action in the area of installation of construction products at new construction sites. Seven construction inspectors of the IRSNVP participated in it. 50 inspections were planned, but 73 of them were carried out in practice.Author: The website of Pixabay
This means that the planned control scope was exceeded by almost 50 percent.
The main purpose of the campaign was to gain insight into the situation in the field of installation of construction products and to check whether construction contractors consistently use exclusively products that are suitable for their intended use, legally placed on the market and equipped with appropriate and valid proof of compliance, in accordance with the provisions of Article 38 of the Construction Act (GZ-1).
As part of the campaign, 58 administrative inspection procedures were introduced, in which 79 construction products were inspected.
personal attention was paid to the following groups of construction products:
curved fittings,
metal binding agent,
external doors, fire-resistant doors and doors on escape routes,
other construction products, when the above-mentioned products were not present at the construction site.
Findings
The findings show that most of the inspected products were installed correctly and in accordance with the regulations. Out of a total of 79 inspected products, seven of them were not properly placed on the market, and the declared properties of four did not meet the project requirements, and two of these were also improperly placed on the market at the same time. In the case of approximately 15 percent of the products, the procedures have not yet been completed, so the verification procedures will continue even after the end of the campaign.
Among the identified irregularities, individual cases of structural wood that was placed on the market without appropriate certificates and did not meet project requirements stood out, as well as entrance and fire-resistant doors that did not comply with legislative or project conditions. In one case, the installation of bent reinforcement without the appropriate technical specification (STS) was also found, and the violation was eliminated on the basis of the issued inspection decision. In the identified cases, the building inspection took action in accordance with its powers, and the irregularities were or are being eliminated as part of the inspection procedures.
The building inspection will continue to carry out targeted inspections in the future to ensure safe construction and protection of the public interest.
