CIBSE launches building design software liability solution
CIBSE has developed new software verification tests that provide a standard means of testing the accuracy of building design software.
The test will be launched at a one-day seminar organised by CIBSE in conjunction with professional indemnity insurers and quality assurance experts.
Apart from the reassurance that the software they are using is producing correct designs, the tests enable engineers to show that it has also been verified as accurate.
The seminar will also cover the liabilities for non-compliance with Part L and the Energy Performance Directive. Liabilities related to health issues in buildings – such as Legionella, Asbestosis, and smoking – will also be addressed.
The event takes place at the Building Services Engineering Centre, Balham, London on Tuesday 29 June 2004.
