SBSH extends peer review support for verifiers to include applications with elements of complex fire engineered design

The SBSH supports the building standards delivery model by providing expert advice to local authority verifiers on matters related to Fire and Energy and the environment.

This advice relates to these parts of the technical standards and extends to providing peer review on fire engineered design solutions that follow an alternative approach to published guidance, and peer review relating to energy and environment matters.

Support to the verifier can also now be provided on applications which include elements of complex fire engineering design which may require specialist advice. The SBSH can support the verifier by establishing an 'operational partnership' between the verifier and any relevant specialist.

LABSS members can access this support from the 'Expert and Technical Advice' section on the 'Technical' page.
