The new Building Safety Act will fundamentally change how we design, build and manage properties. Now, with greater clarity on the changes that are set to be implemented in the coming months, world leader in testing, inspection and certification, Bureau Veritas, has unveiled its new Building Safety Act interactive guide, designed to help duty holders navigate the new three-step Gateway process.

Reflecting Bureau Veritas’ continued commitment to educating businesses on regulatory best practice in buildings and fire safety, the step-by-step guide provides duty holders with an overview of the new Building Safety Act, breaks down the three Gateway and informs businesses on how to be compliant.

With a clear and interactive design and format, the guide sets out the background of the Building Safety Act – including what it is, how businesses can comply with the new regulations and when each phase comes into play. There’s also a section on each of the Gateways, with accompanying videos from Andy Lowe, Technical and Training Director at Bureau Veritas to talk businesses through the requirements at each stage.
