Construction safety is 'broken', say fire chiefs
be warned, Some construction companies do not dare yet, buildings That are safe from fire, The National Fire Chiefs ' Council (NFCC) has warned.
your safety-head-Nick Coombe, said a contractor had improved since the Grenfell-disaster in the year 2017.
The Federation of Master Builders for small contractor, said it was trying to create a safer industry, with licensed companies.
Build in the UK, which for the whole industry, declined to comment.
The National Fire Chiefs Council said, the construction industry was "broken" and could not be trusted to compliance with The Rules .
Mr. Coombe, said That many reforms were required, in particular, to building codes, select the allow builders to, an inspector, to certify you, your building security.
The current inspection system was developed to speed up by the government in the 1980s, the schedule for the building.
the Ministers were concerned That local Council inspectors, to delay the projects were so That they allowed private inspectors compete on speed of approval and cost.
Tower Block "free-for-all"
The generator is effectively the safety of employees inspector: critics say, it is the choice to select the you will pay is of how the students, their exams – except people's lives are in danger.
Mr. Coombe, said: “This is to drive standards up. It means That the developer controls the number of visits from a building inspector. We have people shopping around for the construction of responsible, would the acceptance of their work.
“If you build A House extension of The Local authority are all about you. If you build a high-rise building or a shopping center there is a free-for-all. "
Mr. Coombe's comments reinforce a current NFCC submission of a post-Grenfell review of the building regulations.
In the document of The Fire -Council, warns: “we are of the opinion That some in the broader industry responsibility not to act fully in the planning and approval of buildings.
“a ban on things [such as flammable cladding] is no guarantee That the people follow The Rules , and it is our view That much of the combustible cladding is prohibited on the side of buildings already, under the current regime.
“Until today, there is little evidence of a change in the corporate culture [since Grenfell]. There is much more to be done to ensure the safety of the building occupants, now and in The Future .
“NFCC is committed to ensuring That the current building Control System is revised to ensure That it is robust regardless of customer and market influence, and has sufficient teeth to enforce relevant fire protection standards as necessary. "
security differences of opinion,
the answer to The terrible Grenfell fire has some side effects. Some construction companies report very large delays to construction, while developers, architects and developers argue about the liability for the safety.
The owner of a construction company who does not want to be named, said: “construction projects are dictated by the insurer. Insurance premiums shot up. There is a handover of responsibility to the right in the Food Chain [from developers, architects, contractor, sub-contractor]. "
Grenfell-effect also has architects put off by the design of buildings with wood in The Wall construction.
governments in the USA, Canada and Europe, the promotion of the use of wood in buildings to help combat Climate Change , because it binds the CO2 That the trees from the atmosphere.
The United States, for example, to certify the 17-storey wood-framed building after extensive fire tests.
Meanwhile, in the UK, the government proposes That the maximum height of the building with wood in The Walls , not More Than four floors.
Fires tests necessary to
Mr. Coombe, said the NFCC do not want to block the use of wood in buildings, but insisted That fire tests should be conducted in the UK to demonstrate the safety of the design.
A government spokesman, The Grenfell Tower fire said: “a devastating tragedy and We Are as determined as ever to ensure That this never happen again.
“safety is Paramount – That 's why we announced the biggest changes to the protection of buildings in A Generation That a meaningful and lasting change for the residents.
“We are carefully considering the responses to our consultation and respond in due time"
Brian Berry of The Federation of Master Builders said: "Our members, the vast majority of work in the domestic repair and maintenance, or the small home Builder, are know That quality and safety must be Central to the construction projects.
“We are the leading are moving to more industry professionalised and advocate for the licensing of all UK construction companies. "
BuildUK has a very wide membership in the industry-and, in some questions of its members, it is difficult to reach a consensus.
