Today, compliance with national standards is obligatory in Ukraine if they are referred to in laws and regulations, contracts and construction codes (DBN and GBN). In all other cases, the standards are voluntary for use.
The adoption of draft laws No.7123 and No.6577 in the proposed versions will lead to absolutely voluntary standards in construction, lack of appropriate control, poor quality of design documents and, consequently, decreasing in the level of safety of construction facilities.
BRDO experts together with the construction community have developed amendments to the draft laws No.7123 and No.6577 that propose a balanced approach to the application of standards in construction.
The application of standards should become obligatory if construction codes refer to national standards relating to calculations and design methods and processes for implementing construction projects. This approach is international practice and is aimed at guaranteeing the safety of construction facilities by the state.
We invite you to leave feedbacks and comments on the document within the next 2 weeks.
