Case context
BER determined the current case falls between BER 00-5 (imminent bridge collapse) and BER 07-10 (barn structural concern) in terms of imminence and breadth of risk
Compliance status
unmet
Confidence
0.91
Importance
high
Obligated party
Engineer A (current case subdivision forensic engineer)
Obligation statement
Engineer A was obligated to calibrate his escalation response to the intermediate risk profile of the subdivision defect — more than the limited written notification required in BER 07-10 (non-imminent, single-property risk) but less than the full-bore multi-authority campaign required in BER 00-5 (imminent, widespread bridge collapse risk) — by contacting local building officials and the homeowners association.
Temporal scope
After completing the forensic investigation and assessing the risk profile

this Board is of the view that...the facts and circumstances in the present case fall somewhere between those outlined in BER Cases 00-5 and 07-10, and would require Engineer A to take steps beyond merely submitting a written report to the insurance company.
Text references
Although a threat isn't imminent, since this matter had the potential to affect several other homeowners in the subdivision, Engineer A should have explored additional steps, including contacting local building officials, as well as the local homeowners or community civic association
