It supersedes BS 8213-1:1991, which is withdraw
11、n. In this revision, a risk assessment approach to window design is recommended. Greater emphasis has been placed upon the use of safety restrictor devices to limit the initial opening of windows to minimize the risks of persons falling out of open windows. NOTE 1Attention has been drawn to these ne
12、eds following a number of incidents where fatalities have occurred due to the lack of suitable fittings. A clause on security (Clause 7) has been added to cover related safety issues. The guidance given in this standard is in addition to legislative requirements, which take precedence, and is suitab
13、le for new buildings and for upgrading and refurbishment works. It is aimed at all those involved in the specification, design, selection and use of windows, including public authorities, house-builders, architects, surveyors, window designers, window installers, glazing contractors and building own
14、ers. It may also be useful to building occupiers. The guidance is primarily intended for use in residential accommodation, but many of the recommendations are applicable to other building types, to which health and safety legislation applies (see Note 2). Attention is drawn to the fact that statutor
15、y legislation such as the Building Regulations 2000 1 (applicable to England and Wales), the Building Standards (Scotland) Regulations 1990 2, and the Building Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1994 3 might impose requirements in certain circumstances. Planning or other constraints in some situations m
16、ight necessitate special provisions for cleaning and safety. All involved in the design and installation of windows need to be aware of the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 1994, as amended by the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 and the Construction (Design a
17、nd Management) (Amendment) Regulations 2000 4. These require designers, in a very broadly defined sense of the term, to minimize foreseeable risks to people doing the work or people affected by the work from any project arising from building maintenance and cleaning. Guidance for professional window
18、 cleaners is prepared by the Health and Safety Executive and is listed in the Bibliography. The recently adopted Directive on Temporary Work at Height 5 will be implemented through new regulations governing all such work including that of window cleaners. NOTE 2The Workplace (Health, Safety and Welf
19、are) Regulations 1992 6 contain specific safety requirements which apply to window safety, in particular regulation 14 on the risk of injury from breakage of windows, regulation 15 on safety in opening, closing and adjusting windows and regulation 16 which requires that all windows are designed and
20、constructed so that they can be cleaned safely. The Health and Safety Executive Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 Approved Code of Practice and Guidance 1992 L24 7 on these Regulations gives guidance.
