The Building Safety Act for Everyday Projects

The Building Safety Act has introduced significant changes to the construction landscape, with new regulations designed to improve safety and accountability across all projects—not just higher-risk buildings (HRBs). This webinar brings together a panel of experts to help all in the construction industry understand their duties for everyday, non-HRB projects and processes.

This panel discussion brings together experts from architecture, construction, and manufacturing to explore how the new building safety regime applies to everyday, non-HRB projects and processes. The session will address practical challenges faced by small and medium businesses and offer clear guidance on navigating the evolving regulatory framework.

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.

This webinar is sponsored by Knauf.
