Iingaba Zokuhlola ze-NHBRC: Okwenzeka Esigabeni Ngasinye

Ukuhlola kwe-NHBRC okwehlulekileko kumisa umsebenzi olandelako, kubambezela isitifiketi senkokhelo sakho begodu kungabeka ii-enrolment zakho engozini. Yoke indlu etjha efakwe (enrolled) ku-National Home Builders Registration Council (NHBRC) ihlolwa eengabeni eziqakathekileko zokwakha. Ukuhlola ngokwakho kuyabikezeleka. Ukwehluleka ngokuvamileko kuvela ebufakazini obutjhodako, emdwebeni ongakalungi esizeni namkha esibaweni esenziwa sekudlulile.

Igayidi le ihlathulula iingaba ezine zokuhlola ze-NHBRC, ukuthi ngubani ohlola ini, ungabawa njani ukuvakatjhelwa nokuthi kwenzekani lokha umsebenzi wehluleka. Inikela uhlu lokuhlola olusebenzako lwesigaba ngasinye, kufaka hlangana nokuhlola kwe-wall plate nophahla okungaphakathi kwesigaba se-superstructure. Ukubhaliswa, i-enrolment ne-warranty, bona igayidi yethu yeemfuneko ze-NHBRC eSewula Afrika.

Ngiziphi Iingaba Zokuhlola ze-NHBRC?

I-NHBRC ibala iingaba ezine eziqakathekileko zokuhlola indlu efakiweko: i-sub-structure (isisekelo), i-superstructure, i-practical completion ne-stormwater. Abahloli bavakatjhela eengabeni lezi ukuhlola umsebenzi ngokuya nge-NHBRC Technical Requirements namaplani avunyiweko. Esizeni, abakhi abanengi bahlela ukuhlolwa kwe-superstructure ngokuya ngeenkhathi ezimbili: izinga le-wall plate nesakhiwo sophahla.

Isigaba	Nakwenzeka nini	Lokho umhloli akutjhejako	Lokho okufuze kube sefayilini
1. I-sub-structure (isisekelo)	Ngemva kokumba nangaphambi kokuthulula namkha ngaphambi kobana umsebenzi umbozwe	Ubukhulu bomsele, isimo somhlabathi wesisekelo, i-reinforcement, amazinga	I-site class namkha umbiko we-geotechnical, i-design yesisekelo ye-engineer, izithombe
2. I-superstructure	Iimbondo ukufika ezingeni le-wall plate, ngemva kwalokho isakhiwo sophahla ngaphambi kokumbozwa	Iimbondo, iimbobo, ama-lintel, i-damp-proofing, i-wall plate, ama-truss, i-bracing, iinsetjenziswa zokubopha	Amaplani avunyiweko, i-design nesitifiketi sama-truss wophahla, izithombe
3. I-practical completion	Indlu iqedwe ngokwaneleko ukuthi ingahlalwa	Ukuthobela koke kwamaplani ne-Technical Requirements, isembozo sophahla, iinsetjenziswa (services)	Isitifiketi sokuqedwa somuntu onekghono (Appendix D1), i-electrical CoC
4. I-stormwater	Eduze kokuqedwa, lokha umsebenzi wesiza sele uphelile	Amanzi akhamba asuke endlini ngaphandle kokukhukhula umhlabathi namkha izikhukhula	Ihlelo lokuphuma kwamanzi esizeni, izithombe zemitjhinga neenkhanjana

Lezi ziingaba i-NHBRC ezisebenzisako. I-engineer yakho namkha umuntu onekghono angafuna ukuhlola okungezelelweko, isibonelo ku-raft foundation namkha ku-slab yendlu enezitezi ezimbili. Lokho nakho kufake ku-programme yakho.

Ngubani Ohlola Umsebenzi: Umhloli Namkha Umuntu Onekghono?

Umhloli we-NHBRC wenza ukuhlola okungazelelwe, kuthi umuntu onekghono (competent person) omqatjhileko abe nomthwalo wokulawula ikhwalithi nokunikela iinsitifiketi. I-NHBRC itjho ngokucacileko ukuthi abahloli bayo abasi esizeni isikhathi soke begodu abalawuli ikhwalithi yomnikazi wendlu. Umsebenzi loyo usezandleni zomakhi nomuntu onekghono, ngokuvamileko yi-engineer ebhalisiweko.

Ngokwamambala lokhu kutjho:

Uqatjha umuntu onekghono wendlu leyo begodu utlole ukuqatjhwa kwakhe.
Umuntu onekghono uhlola ngesikhathi sokwakha begodu asayine izinto ze-design, ezifana nesisekelo nophahla.
Ekuqedweni, umuntu onekghono ukhupha ifomu le-Appendix D1, isitifiketi sokuqedwa esithi umsebenzi wahlolwa begodu uyafana ne-design.
Umhloli we-NHBRC ubawa ifomu le-D1, kunye neensitifiketi zesisekelo nezophahla, ukuqinisekisa ukuthobela.

Nangabe iinsitifiketi ze-engineer zifika sekudlulile, ukuhlola nakho kufika sekudlulile. Zilandele njengengcenye yesigaba ngasinye, angasi ekupheleni.

Ukubawa Njani Ukuhlola kwe-NHBRC?

Wazisa ihlangano yokuhlola ye-NHBRC (inspectorate) lokha isigaba silungile, begodu umhloli uqinisekisa ilanga lokuvakatjhela isiza. Ngokwe-NHBRC, ukuvakatjhela kufuze kwenzeke ngaphakathi kwamalanga womsebenzi amahlanu kusukela esibaweni. Emsebenzini othobelako, umhloli bese uhlela ukuvakatjhela okulandelako njengengcenye yomjikelezo wakhe ojayelekileko, owaziwa ngokuthi yi-”tour of duty”.

Amalanga womsebenzi amahlanu sikhathi eside bona ithimba lesiza lilinde. Imikhuba embalwa igcina i-programme ihamba:

Bawa ngokuya nge-programme. Faka isigaba ngasinye esikhathini sakho njenge-milestone, nelanga lesibawo amalanga ambalwa ngaphambi kobana umsebenzi ulunge.
Nikela imininingwana ecacileko yokungena. Inomboro yeyunithi, inomboro ye-erf, umuntu wokuthintana esizeni nokungena esangweni.
Yiba nomuntu munye onomthwalo esizeni ongakhambisa umhloli emsebenzini.
Ragela phambili nomunye umsebenzi. Sebenzisa isikhathi sokulinda emsebenzini ongamboziko indawo ehlolwako.

Ngaphambi Kokuhlola Nanyana Ngikuphi: Uhlu Lokulungiselela Olujayelekileko

Nanyana kungesiphi isigaba, izinto ezisisekelo ezifanako ziquma ukuthi ukuhlola kuhamba kuhle. Qhuba uhlu olufitjhani lolu ilanga ngaphambi kokuvakatjhelwa ngakunye. Luthatha imizuzu elitjhumi begodu lususa amabanga ajayelekileko khulu wokuvakatjhela okulahlekileko, ayimidwebo engakalungi, ukungabi nokungena nokungabi nabufakazi bomsebenzi osele umboziwe.
