The primary objective of an expert report is typically to present defensible written documentation that directly addresses concerns of a technical nature. These reports will likely be presented to a wide range of audiences, including non-technical individuals like homeowners, judges, jury members or arbitrators. Therefore, the expert reports must be readily comprehensible to those who need to make use of these conclusions. Typically, in any expert report, the background information provided by the client precedes observations, observations precede analysis, and analysis precedes conclusions. The opinions will form naturally in the audience's mind when facts are presented and explained in a logical flow, backed up with strategically inserted expert opinions and citations from the relevant Australian Standards, Building Codes (BCA) and National Construction Codes (NCC).
