Read more about our panel below...
#### The Building Safety Act:
The Building Safety Act 2022, due to come into force on 6th April 2024, has far-reaching implications for everyone in construction.
This new legislation has been subject to ongoing evolution and widespread misunderstanding within built environment forums. It is critical that everyone involved in construction understands the implications of the Act and their responsibilities within it.
We all need to work together to contribute toward the provision of safe spaces for occupants, whilst demonstrating buildings have been built safely.
#### The Event:
Join Cube Construction Consultants, as we bring together clients, contractors, architects, legal representatives, building owners and academics to understand and discuss the Act from their perspective.
During the session we’ll explore the benefits, opportunities, issues and challenges of the Building Safety Act and how as an industry we can incorporate best practice, evidence competency, formalise accountability and establish clear lines of evidence-based construction management.
Following a brief presentation on the key points of the Building Safety Act, we’ll facilitate a multi-disciplinary discussion around how everyone is affected. It’s an opportunity to share ideas, challenges and explore opportunities and solutions for future activity.
All the key outcomes will be collated and shared with all attendees after the event.
Invited participants will leave the event with a far greater understanding of how to plan, manage and monitor construction projects within the framework of the Act.
#### RSVP to Cube:
Attendance is by invitation only and places are limited. Please RSVP to [hello@cube-cc.co.uk](mailto:hello@cube-cc.co.uk) by end of day on Wednesday 13th March to avoid disappointment.
Refreshments will be provided, courtesy of [Thissen Consulting](https://www.thissenconsulting.com/). Please let us know of any dietary requirements.
