Standards Development
Under the direction of the Standards Policy and Strategy Committee, is responsible for the development of National standards for fire safety on construction sites
A dedicated BSI committee for Fire Safety in construction is essential to address the current gap in consistent, authoritative guidance across the sector. As construction methods rapidly evolve—with new technologies, engineered timber systems, and alternative fuels increasingly entering the industry—there is an urgent need for standards that can keep pace with innovation and ensure robust fire risk management. At the same time, the housing sector is under intense pressure to accelerate delivery, which can heighten risks for both construction workers and existing residents living alongside active projects. A formal BSI committee would provide the structure, expertise, and governance required to create evidence-based, future focused standards that enhance safety, support industry competence, and protect people as the built environment continues to change.
