Abstract The purpose is to raise awareness of an important emerging building safety issue in the UK. The UK government wrote to principal accountable persons and building owners about potential risks from transfer slabs in buildings on 19 December 2025. RICS members who are chartered building surveyors may be <br/>instructed to carry out condition surveys of such tall buildings to identify buildings with transfer <br/>slabs. If a building is identified, then a suitable expert structural engineer will be required to <br/>carry out more in-depth analysis. RICS recommends that IStructE are contacted for suitable <br/>competent engineers. RICS has developed an information hub with FAQs: Transfer slabs in buildings: Advice and <br/>FAQs. This will be updated as more information becomes available. Please check regularly for the most recent updates
