Cladding - Single Building Assessments and additional work assessments: standards
The Single Building Assessment (SBA) standards set out the process that must be followed when undertaking assessment and if needed remediation for buildings as set out in section 32 of the Housing (Cladding Remediation) (Scotland) Act 2024.
Retention of Information
To support compliance with these Standards, the Commissioning party must retain material/evidence a minimum period of two years following notification that works have been completed (that is, when the assessor has updated the SBA to signal that work has been carried out and the overall risk of the building is now tolerable).
Documents or information that must be retained are as follows:
- copies of the SBA and or AWAs, original surveys or assessments carried out prior to the publication of these Standards,
- details of the competent person/persons that undertook the SBA and AWAs
- copies of the design works/plans including who undertook design/planning,
- other data, information, records that relate to assessment and remediation including but not limited to, building warrant for works (if applicable), contractors/sub-contractors carrying out relevant works, schedule of works, proof of materials used in works/remediation, and completion certificate,
- photographs, records and information gathered from visits to the site by the assessor and or the commissioning party.
This concludes the Standards. The following annex does not form part of the standards and is provided for information only.
