This month Iain Gray of BB7 provides his thoughts about the implications of the Building Safety Act from the perspective of the Façade Consultant. We put the following questions to Iain, and as always there is a link to the full interview at the end of this Short: 1. Which aspect of the new Building Safety Act regime, in your opinion, has had the most significant impact on the building envelope industry, and how does this influence the role of a façade consultant? 2. Have façade consultants needed to alter their collaboration approaches with specialist designers and product manufacturers in the development of their facade solutions post-Building Safety Act? 3. If a construction product manufacturer or system house proposes their products for specification in a design you are working on, what level of thoroughness should they anticipate from you, and how does the Building Safety Act elevate the scrutiny applied to specifications? 4. How has BB7 positioned itself to meet the requirements of its clients and Dutyholders under the new Building Safety Act regulations? 5. Why is it significant that associations like the JCI, representing diverse opinions across the sector, contribute to shaping our understanding and addressing competency within its domain? Thank you Iain Gray for sharing your thoughts. JCI. https://lnkd.in/e7vH7HTZ
