Show Notes
Standards affect all of us every day, everywhere. By defining good practice, they help people and organizations do things better. For all sorts of things, from nanotechnology to Net Zero guidance.
And these standards are made by standards-makers – tens of thousands of people from around the world - who get together to agree good practice to the way things are made and done. All helping to make life easier, safer, and more enjoyable.
In this episode, Matthew speaks with Harry Pangli, a Chartered Architectural Technologist and Architect with over 20 years’ experience across UK domestic, residential, commercial, and industrial projects. Since 2018, Harry has specialised in construction disputes and now works at Expert Architect Limited as a forensic architect and expert witness.
Harry represents the Chartered Institute of Architectural Technologists on various BSI committees, and chairs BSI committee B/209 on general design and construction standards, helping shape standards across the built environment.
Harry shares his motivations for getting and staying involved in standards, the impact standards-making has had on his career, and his advice to anyone considering getting involved in standards.
