The new application is starting, the real danger is before 2000: "We can't find it"

The Ministry of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change is preparing to implement a new application in addition to the Building Liability Certificate that has been implemented since 2021.

With the new practice, buildings will be required to be inspected every five years.

With the project planned to be implemented starting from the new year, the compliance of the columns on critical floors and the number of floors in the building with the legislation will be checked within the scope of mandatory inspection.

If irregularities are detected, a decision on reinforcement or demolition may be made in line with the report of the building inspection company.

Experts point out that it is important to include simple repairs in the scope of application.

Speaking to NTV, Yıldız Technical University Civil Engineering Department faculty member Prof. Dr. Ali Koçak; "After the building is finished, let me remove the wall, let me deface the columns, let me build a workplace, a shop, a store downstairs, let me remove this column; there will be no such things." He evaluated it with his words.

Explaining that with the application, it will be mandatory to prepare a project when any operation is wanted to be carried out in the buildings, Koçak stated that it will now be mandatory to notify about issues such as wall breakage or plumbing repair.
