Chaired by Dr Stephen Hamil, Innovation Director at NBS, the webinar will provide essential insights and answer pressing questions on compliance, risk management, and project timelines.

Discussion highlights, all focused on everyday projects, will include:

  • Key dutyholder roles, including Principal Designer & Principal Contractor and their responsibilities
  • New Building Control approval processes and requirements 
  • Common challenges and how clients, architects, contractors and manufacturers are adapting
