The businesses it reaches

Bygningsreglementet 2018 (BR18), kapitel 5, Brand, reaches businesses that own, operate or occupy buildings in Denmark, including employers, landlords, retail and online sellers with premises, and operators of assembly, care and accommodation buildings. The instrument sets duties on fire safety in the use and maintenance of buildings, and the toolkit covers those duties in two working files. Each file is a set of working files that organise the obligations into phases of open questions a business answers from its own records, with the statutory text carried verbatim beside each duty.

The first working file covers fire safety duties on the design, equipment and ongoing operation of buildings, including the provisions printed as § 138 and § 142, stk. 5. The second working file covers the remaining fire safety duties, including the provision printed as § 143, stk. 1, and the provisions that follow it through § 157. Sections are served through a connector inside Claude; nothing is downloaded and nothing is installed.

The documents that come back are dated compliance reports the business keeps in its own file. The toolkit never gives advice and never presents a perspective; it carries what the authority wrote, organised.
