The Building Safety Act 2022 requires all architects to ensure compliance with building regulations and demonstrate their competence.

This involves planning, managing, and monitoring their designs to ensure they meet the functional requirements of building regulations – which requires specifying active and passive fire protection systems, and proper egress routes.

This shift requires architects to take ownership of the compliance process and provide compliant designs with confidence.

  • Expert Insights: Gain invaluable knowledge from industry experts on the latest fire safety requirements.
  • Networking Opportunities: Connect with fellow professionals, share experiences, and build relationships that can support your practice in navigating these regulations to ensure compliance.
  • Cutting-Edge Solutions: Discover the latest products and technologies that can help you to optimise fire safety in your projects.

Speakers include:

  • Jane Duncan OBE, RIBA past president, Chair of The RIBA Expert Panel on Fire Safety
  • Nigel Ostime, RIBA Author and Consultant, Hawkins Brown Architects
  • Amanda Long, CEO, Code for Construction Product Information (CCPI)
  • Victoria Millward, Director, Paddock Johnson
