Appraise tall blocks for progressive collapse, wind loads, and fire resistance
Recommendation
All blocks over six storeys in height should be appraised by a structural engineer: (a) whether they are susceptible to progressive collapse {paragraph 191}; (b) whether they adequately resist the maximum wind loadings which they may experience {paragraph 214}; (c) their behaviour in the event of fire {paragraph 216}.
