The UK Engineering Council has launched a new standard for Professional Engineering Competence and Commitment Contextualised for Higher-Risk Buildings (UK-SPEC HRB) for engineers and technicians. Registration is now available for Engineers and Technicians competent to work on HRBs in key disciplines like Structures, Building Services, Façade Engineering, and Fire Engineering.
HRB registrants assessed by IFE against the Fire Discipline Annex possess the technical and professional understanding to assess fire safety risks, develop mitigation strategies, and ensure compliance with relevant legislation and standards. They demonstrate leadership, independent judgement, and a strong commitment to ethical and professional practice in fire engineering.
