Is this floor ready?

A tower does not fail on one thing. It fails on the gap between things — the climb waits on the pour, the pour waits on the engineer, the engineer waits on survey, and nobody owns the gap. This walks the whole deck and tells you what is still open.

This is not an approval. A green result means nothing on this list is outstanding — it is not a sign-off, a permit, an engineering release or a legal determination. The decision to proceed belongs to the competent person responsible for the work, using the site’s own hold points and approvals.

Where towers actually lose time

The cycle sets every other date on the job, so a deck that is not ready costs more than the day it delays. The trailing fronts are usually the problem: services rough-in, penetrations, PT, and the edge protection that has to be complete before anyone can work near the perimeter. None of those are hard. They just need somebody to have checked, and to have checked against the current drawing rather than the one on the wall.

Questions

Is this an engineering assessment?

No. It is a coordination check. It tells you which items are outstanding and who owns them. Structural adequacy, formwork design and pour release are all decisions for the responsible engineer.

How is this different from the pour readiness checker?

This one covers the whole deck in the days before the pour — services, penetrations, PT, access, crane. The pour readiness checker is the morning-of check once the deck is built.

What if we are not post-tensioned?

Mark the PT items N/A. They are not counted against you.

Does it store anything about my project?

One floor at a time, or every floor at once

The High-Rise OS carries 104 control systems across every work front on a tower, and rolls all of them into one board — so the gap between the climb, the pour and the engineer has an owner and a date before it becomes a delay.
