Building Regulations Explained: 2004 Revision

by District Surveyors Association London, John Stephenson, Robert Foulger (Editor)

Almost all buildings erected or altered in England and Wales must satisfy the requirements of the building regualtions. This fully revised, essential reference takes into account all important aspects of building control including new legislation up to January 2004, with important revisions to Parts B, E, H, J, u1, u2, and M and outlines the proposed Parts P and Q. The Appeals and Determinations have been repositioned at the end of each chapter. Each chapter explains in clear terms the appropriate regulation and any other legislation, before explaining the approved document. Publications lists and relevant sources of information are also included, together with annexes devoted to legislation relevant to the construction industry, determinations made by the Secretary of State, and sample check lists. This highly illustrated and practical approach to the subject makes this ideal for the professional, with special appeal to architects, planners, surveyors, builders, designers, building control professionals including new non-NHBC approved inspectors, and students.; This new edition has been thoroughly revised and restructured by Robert Foulger for the London District Surveyors Association. The London District Surveyors Association represents building control offivers in London and the surrounding area. John Stephenson was for some 30 years head of a multidisciplinary department in local government with responsibility for building control and business administration.
