Overview: Although most emergency events are not entirely unexpected and therefore can, to varying degrees, be mitigated for, the construction industry in the UK does not appear to play a sufficiently integrated role in emergency management. This paper reports on research that is developing a knowledge database and decision support framework to enable more effective emergency planning and response strategies from a built environment perspective. Questionnaire surveys were used to review the opinions of professionals involved with emergency management, construction, planning and insurance (amongst others) on issues related to emergency management in the UK.
