Responsibility of the successful tenderer

The roof of the building has significant leaks due to a poor execution of workattributable to the agents who intervened in the building, and not to the constructive solution chosen in the municipal project, as indicated in judgment no. 37/2019 of February 15, 2019 rendered by the Contentious-Administrative Chamber of the Superior Court of Justice of Navarre. The aforementioned decree expressly specifies that there is neither a project prepared by the Town Hall nor an order for the roof waterproofing model. On the contrary, it maintains that the determination of the project and its subsequent modification, to place the floating waterproofing system composed of PDM plates, was drawn up by the awarded UTE, which was ultimately responsible for its correct installation.

It is this judgment which also addressed the technical question, considering that the system chosen by the concessionaire of the work was that of glued and non-welded waterproof sheets, so that there was no material continuity in the joints made in the work. This the system was not adequateas the expert then judged, due to the large surface area concerned and the high risk of non-execution: “the execution did not reach the required quality and improper placement has occurred. The consequence is localized leaks in the building.

Leaks detected almost 10 years ago and still uncorrected

In this sentence, The Superior Court of Justice of Navarre has exonerated the Pamplona City Hall from any responsibility for the leak problems caused by the water collection system and the floating waterproofing system used, and has expressly declared its right to have the work, at the end of the operating concession period, returned to it under the conditions of being able to continue to provide the public service.

The Contentious-Administrative Chamber of the Superior Court of Justice of Navarre established that It was the concessionaire and appellant who caused the serious deterioration of the roof of the station.and it is up to her to resolve it, because in addition, within the framework of the conservation obligations established by the regulatory specifications of the concession, the station must be in perfect use, which does not currently happen.

THE leaks They have been detected for more than 10 years, and generate significant leaks indoors when it rains a lot, despite partial repairs carried out. SO, complete rehabilitation is necessary which guarantees the complete elimination of water ingress. The Town Hall’s requirement for a basic project does not imply a specific solution, but rather the municipal technical services will assess the viability of the work proposed by the concessionaire.
