Which PAS addresses the competence framework for individual Principal Designers?

• A. PAS 8672:2022 Built environment — Framework for competence of individual Principal Contractors - Specification
• B. PAS 8671:2022 Built environment — Framework for competence of individual Principal Designers - Specification
• C. PAS 8673:2022 Built environment — Framework for competence of individual Principal Designers - Specification
• D. PAS 8674:2023 Built environment — Framework for competence of site supervisors - Specification

Answer: (B)

This question tests which PAS provides the competence framework for individual Principal Designers. The correct specification is the one titled Built environment — Framework for competence of individual Principal Designers - Specification. It defines the knowledge, skills, and experience needed for an individual Principal Designer to perform their role effectively, aligning with health and safety coordination in design under the CDM Regulations and outlining how competence is demonstrated and evidenced.

The other options refer to different roles or scopes (for example, principal contractors or site supervisors) or do not target the exact "individual Principal Designer" scope, so they don’t match the request as precisely.
