New guidance on HRB Gateway 2 submissions
The guidance aims to provide baseline principles on different aspects of the Gateway 2 process, to streamline the application process by ensuring that common issues with applications are avoided.
The guidance covers:
- The Building Safety Regime for a new Higher-Risk Building
- Sufficient Level of Design
- Approval with Requirements
- Application Information Schedule
- Application Project Brief
- Application Document Management and Submission
- Application Strategy for a Single Building Staged Application or Applications for a Multi-Building Development
The principles supporting a clear and comprehensive application for Building Control Approval are common for all types of building work. Therefore, the guidance suite may also be useful for Building Control Approval Applications for work in an existing HRB, in particular category A work. Some of the elements may also be relevant for category B work.
