The purpose of the UC Building surveys is to complete a full visual assessment of the condition of the interior and exterior of the building.

Surveyors will ensure that any photographs taken during the assessment are of the building and that persons are not identifiable in the photographs.

 Your support in ensuring that spaces are tidy and open for inspection will be appreciated.

 Please direct any enquiries to fmassist@canterbury.ac.nz.

 Thank you for your consideration as we undertake these required building surveys.

Facilities Management advise that smoky conditions around the campus result from a controlled burn-off at Bottle Lake Forest (10km northeast of the city) that is having a larger than expected impact on the city. This is an ongoing burn-off that commenced on 26 March and is scheduled to be completed around 16 April.

The material being burned can cause irritation for some, so please be mindful and considerate of your colleagues and fellow students. From an H&S perspective, we recommend:

If your respiratory system is compromised, or weakened, we recommend covering up and wearing a mask if you must be outdoors and talk to your lecturers or Taurima if you have any concerns.
