Solutions for the housing crisis:: Just build!

To understand this, let’s briefly get technical: The “recognized rules of technology” are a legal term that emerged from case law but is not precisely defined. That alone creates a great deal of uncertainty for many building contractors, says Leupertz.

Otherwise, architects and building contractors could be held liable for legally defective workmanship – even though there is no structural damage.
