These risks can arise from various factors, including design flaws, construction defects, inadequate maintenance, and the presence of combustible materials. The Building Safety Act focusses particularly on higher-risk buildings, such as those over 18 meters in height or with specific risk factors identified through risk assessments.</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;"></ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">Building safety risks encompass a range of concerns, including fire safety, structural integrity, and the presence of hazardous materials such as asbestos. Identifying and managing these risks effectively is crucial to ensuring the safety of occupants and preventing incidents such as fires, structural failures, or health hazards. The Act mandates building owners, managers, and developers to assess and mitigate building safety risks through comprehensive risk assessments, ongoing monitoring, and implementation of appropriate safety measures and management strategies.</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"></td><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"></td></tr> <tr><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>= Related articles on Designing Buildings. =</div></td><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>= Related articles on Designing Buildings. =</div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2" class="diff-lineno">Line 16:</td> <td colspan="2" class="diff-lineno">Line 20:</td></tr> <tr><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>* Types of risk in construction projects.</div></td><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>* Types of risk in construction projects.</div></td></tr> <tr><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"></td><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"></td></tr> <tr><td class='diff-marker'>&minus;</td><td style="background: #ffa; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>[[Category:DCN_Definition]] [[Category:Definitions]] [[Category:Health_and_safety_/_CDM]]</div></td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>[[Category:DCN_Definition]] [[Category:Definitions<ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">]] [[Category:Building_safety</ins>]] [[Category:Health_and_safety_/_CDM]]</div></td></tr> </table>
