We’ll guide you through each stage of your building safety journey
The Grenfell tragedy saw the implementation the Building Safety Act 2022. The Act is designed to ensure that all High-Risk Blocks (HRB’s) within scope (at least 18m or 7 storeys and with at least 2 residential units) adhered to the new safety legislation.
Many organisations are finding the change in legislation hard to grasp and require guidance. We have the relevant experience and expertise to hold your hand through, what to many, is a very daunting process.
The Building Safety Regulator (BSR) requires every High-Risk Building
(HRB) in scope to be registered with them.
The criteria for buildings in scope is that they must be at least 18m
height or 7 storeys and with at least 2 residential units.
This is the tool that tells you the status of the HRB in terms of the Building Safety Act (BSA) it will tell you the current status and what actions you require to enable you to submit a Building Assessment Certificate to the BSR when called upon.
Read our article to find out more about how a gap analysis can help you.
Following the Gap analysis, you are required to produce a report which proves that the HRB is compliant with the BSA both in fire safety and structurally.
We can also help with any reports or documentation required for the Building Safety Case ie:
The Resident Engagement Strategy and Mandatory Occurrence Strategy are required documents that need to be submitted to the Building Safety Regulator along with the Building Safety Case Report when applying for the Building Assessment Certificate (BAC).
