Confidential Reporting on Structural Safety (CROSS)

摘要

Newsletter No. 47 begins with a statement on the tragic Grenfell Tower fire, which was published in the July issue of The Structural Engineer. This summary therefore focuses on the reports included in the newsletter, beginning with a concern raised about cladding panels on privately owned high-rise buildings. At present CROSS is particularly keen to have new reports about structural aspects of high-rise residential buildings of all types. The success of the programme depends on receiving reports, and individuals and firms are encouraged to participate by sending concerns in confidence to Structural-Safety at www.structural-safety.org/ confidential-reporting/submit-report/.
