Dincel Construction System requires engineers, designers and installers to familiarise themselves with the Dincel Construction Manual for Designers and Builders (DCMDB).

The information contained in the DCMDB document is not intended to replace design calculations or analysis normally associated with the design and specification of buildings and their components.

Building professionals are required to assess construction site conditions and provide design /details and appropriate safe work methods accordingly.

The installers must require specific project specific detailing for each and every project. (Refer to Section (C) of Dincel Construction Manual for Designers and Builders).
