PART 1\_:- OV"F:RA I J, OFSJ(;N RKVIFW TASKS

For the design check on the building or stmctures in this submission, I confirm that I have
evaluated, analyzed and reviewed the foundation and stmctural design with a view to
determining their stmctural adequacy. Besides other tasks, I have specifically performed the
following tasks and have found that the building or structures designed are stmcturally
adequate and safe:-

(I) Codes Of Practice

-used appropriate codes for the design check

(U) Design Loadings

-checked that loadings used in design are appropriate and adequate

-used appropriate load combinations to check the design

(III)

-used appropriate engineering information and models in the analysis

-ascertained the design assumptions and limitations of the computer programs used
which preferably should be different from that used by the design QP

(IV) Stability & Robustness

BEV/A3 Page l of 12
!Ver 3.0_Dec_20l4j
-detennined the stability and robustness of the structural system, including

considerations for lateral loads. lateral ties, bracings and lateral transfer of loads

(V) All Key Structural Elements

-analysed and checked the design of all key structural elements and the foundation

svstem

(VI) Stmctural Drawings

-checked that the detailings m drawings of all key stmctural elements are adequate

and consistent with the intentions in design calculations

(VH) Other 1\sperts in De-.ign

-detennined the adequacy of other aspects of design which are peculiar to the building

to be constructed or affected by the building works and which are essential to the

structural integrity of the building

Part B:- FOUNDATION & STRliCTURI\.L ELEMENTS

For the following foundation and structural elements or structures, besides other engineering
considerations made by me, I have specifically carried out all the tasks as described in the
table below and confinned that their designs are structurally adequate and safe:-
