Why Choose Planning-Validation Ltd Consultants?

At Planning-Validation we understand the importance of accurately categorizing your high-rise building project to ensure compliance with the Building Safety Regulations. With our expertise and meticulous assessment process, we provide clients with confidence and clarity regarding their project’s classification, streamlining the planning process and maximizing the likelihood of success.

Understanding Category A and Category B

Category A projects encompass high-risk buildings, typically 18 meters or taller or with at least seven storeys. These structures pose heightened safety challenges due to factors such as height, occupancy levels, and complexity. In contrast, Category B projects cover lower-risk buildings that do not meet the criteria for Category A but still require compliance with essential safety standards and regulatory requirements.

Our Assessment Process

When you submit your documents to High-Rise Building Consultants, our team of experts will conduct a thorough assessment to determine whether your project should fall under Category A or Category B work. Our assessment process includes the following steps:

  1. Document Review: We begin by reviewing the documents you provide and other relevant materials.
  2. Compliance Check: We assess your project’s compliance with the specific requirements outlined under National and Local Validation requirements.
  3. Categorization Determination: Based on our findings, we determine whether your validation proposal aligns more closely with Category A, Category B or Category C work.
