Course Information
This knowledge transfer provides an understanding for social housing organisations who need to validate compliance of the domestic fire / smoke alarm systems within individual dwellings and emergency lighting, evacuation alert systems, and fire detection & fire alarm systems within the common / landlords areas of blocks of flats and sheltered housing schemes.
Covering of the industry landscape post Grenfell Tragedy and how the subsequent investigations and enquiries have identified systematic failings in the construction of buildings. How to identify defects introduced by these industry failings and how best to manage and make claim in relation to these latent defects forms part of this course.
Vital to anyone responsible for building, occupant and resident safety. Health & Safety, Compliance and Housing Stock Managers are among those who this course will benefit.
