High Rise, High Risk

The higher the building, the greater the risks - and the more thorough the preparation must be. From fall protection to drainage and fire escape routes, every detail matters when planning works in high-rise projects. That’s why a Building Safety Regulator (BSR) compliance report is required — and Smet can prepare your staircase report, ensuring safety, compliance, and peace of mind from the very start.

What is a BSR Report?

Before any works can begin, contractors and developers are required to submit a Building Safety Regulator (BSR) compliance report. This document provides an in-depth analysis of planned works, ensuring all safety, compliance, and design elements are carefully addressed. This includes critical areas like staircases.
