Almost all buildings erected or altered must satisfy the requirements of the building regulations. This fully revised, essential reference takes into account all important aspects of building control, including new legislation up to the start of 2008, covering major revisions to Parts A, B, C, F, J, L1A, L1B, L2A, L2B and P and revisions to Part E. Each chapter explains in clear terms the appropriate regulation and any other relevant legislation, before explaining the approved document.Publication 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. Highly illustrated and taking a practical approach to the subject, this book is 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 updated by the London District Surveyors Association, which represents building control officers in the London area.
