The Building Safety Act 2022 is of upmost importance for the construction industry. While the Act gives more rights, powers and protections to occupants, the implications for the construction industry are far more wide-reaching, representing a monumental shift in the regulatory framework governing UK construction, outlining new requirements for transformative change that will impact everyone within the construction industry.
In addition to overhauling existing regulations, the Act creates a clear and proportionate framework for the design, construction, and management of safer, high-quality buildings now and in the future.
A critical component of the new more stringent legislation is the requirement for building projects and specifically anyone responsible for building safety to retain a “Golden Thread” of information. It aims to enhance accountability and safety throughout a building’s lifecycle.
One crucial requirement under this act is the establishment of a “golden thread” of information throughout a building’s life-cycle.
The golden thread is a digital record that must be kept online and ensures that every stage of a building’s design, construction, and maintenance is meticulously documented, and kept up-to-date.
The government has decided that the “Golden Thread” of a building’s information must be stored digitally, and is structured, managed and retained in line with the golden thread principles.
The penalties for not complying could be fines, reputational damage and a prison sentence.
