The construction joints were recommended by the contractors and the L.A's. Building Control - NOT ME
Because it was you who was using it as an example on a public forum of how 'useless' Conservation Officers are.The construction joints were recommended by the contractors and the L.A's. Building Control - NOT ME
You gave us two examples; one where you said that 'compromises were reached' (good... that sounds fair enough to me?) and another where, by the best account you've been able to give us so far, the Conservation Officer was right, and BC and the contractor were wrong.

Hello all,
Submitted my dissertation about 20 minutes ago! Thank you for all your help and contributions, I believe I've thanked all who emailed individually, if not I'm sorry an I will correct that tomorrow morning.
In the mean time I've just ordered a celebratory chinese and as a symbolic thanks, I've bought a Pistonhead beer that I found in the shop.
CHEERS!
