1. What types of design and construction work require a
licence in your country?
In Belarus, construction projects are divided into 5 classes of
complexity depending on their purpose, size, complexity of
structures, number of people who may present at the same time,
hazards to people and the environment and other criteria, moreover
the most critical projects are considered as belonging to 1st class
of complexity.
A certificate of compliance is required to carry out work on
projects of complexity classes 1-4 that affect operational safety
and reliability. The government approves the list of such
works.
In the case of design, for example, the functions of a general
designer, work on the development of the master plan, architectural
and construction solutions, solutions for water supply, sewerage,
heating and several others are subject to certification.
