Is there a need to legalize the reconstruction of a building? It is worth contacting Nobilex Law. Our team of lawyers will help you prepare any registration documents.
Reconstruction means construction and repair work aimed at making significant changes to the layout of the building, interfering with load-bearing walls, re-equipping the façade of the building, adjusting the number of floors, etc. It is important to know that all buildings are divided into classes of responsibility, and the list of documents required for reconstruction differs depending on the class.
So what is a class of responsibility? And what classes are there?
The class of liability or the class of consequences is a determination of the level of danger that may arise for various reasons for people located in such a building or on the territory adjacent to it, as well as possible material and social losses arising from the completion of the operation of such real estate. By Ukrainian legislation, all construction projects are divided into three classes of consequences:
- Minor – CC1. This category includes residential buildings with a height of up to four floors, the level of possible danger for permanent residents – up to 50 people, periodically staying – up to 100 people, in the adjacent territory – up to 100 people, the level of possible material losses in case of termination of operation – 2500 minimum wages;
- Average – CC2. This includes buildings intended for human habitation, more than 5 floors high, with a threat level for permanent residents – up to 400 people, periodically – up to 1000 people, on the street – from 100 to 50,000, and the level of material losses – up to 50,000 minimum wages;
- Significant – CC3. This category includes entire residential complexes of multi-story buildings, as well as shopping and entertainment centers. The limits of possible damage caused start from the lower limit of losses provided for CC2, and the scale of losses possible, when the functioning of such facilities is stopped, can be attributed to a catastrophe of a national scale.
A building is assigned to one or another class at the construction planning stage by the organization that created the architectural plan for such a building, having coordinated its decision with the customer. Afterward, regulatory government bodies analyze and agree on such a decision and, in accordance with the class, a further algorithm of actions is built.
So what documents are needed to obtain permission for reconstruction?
For buildings of class CC1, it is enough to submit a notice of the start of construction work, and for objects of class CC2 and CC3, it is necessary to obtain permission to begin such work. Our lawyers will provide you with detailed advice regarding the preparation of such documents and assistance with them.
The process of obtaining permission for reconstruction is quite complex, requiring much free time and knowledge. Since the list of documents required to obtain a permit of this type differs significantly not only depending on the classes, but also depending on the type of building and its purpose. It is worth noting that the law provides for liability for ignoring such norms.
