The Building Regulations

Manual to the Building Regulations
This manual provides information on the Building Regulations and the system of building control in England and Wales. The Regulations govern the management of health and safety issues when new buildings are being constructed, or existing buildings are altered, extended or converted. They are also concerned with energy conservation, and with making buildings more accessible for people with disabilities. This manual explains what kinds of work the Regulations apply to, and describes the two systems of building control. It provides guidance on how to meet the requirements of the Regulations, and includes details of the courses of action available in the event of disagreement with a local authority or approved inspector. It also includes a brief summary of legislation applicable to building and site development. The Manual relates to the Building Regulations 2000, plus the latest editions of approved documents H, J, L1 and L2 which come into force in April 2002.
Using the Building Regulations: Administrative Procedures
As the Building Regulations and Approved Documents have become more and more complex, they have become increasingly unfriendly for a professional user. Compliance is only possible by understanding a wide range of supporting documentation. Alternative approaches are implied, but not described or analysed. This series of books on individual Documents goes far beyond analysis of the Regulations and Documents themselves, and offers practical advice on using not just the traditional routes to compliance but also on the alternative approaches suggested but not explained in the Approved Documents. The advantages and disadvantages of each form of compliance are analysed in depth. This book examines the background to the Building Regulations, and their evolution to the complex documents of today. Inspection, enforcement and compliance are described in detail.
