Technical Information

We are currently updating and writing new technical guidance notes that can be used as supplementary guidance in connection with compliance with building regulations and technical standards.

In addition, we are collating and updating a list of technical questions that we have been asked in the course of our business and providing answers to these questions.

Our review of technical guidance is continuous as Building Regulations and Approved Documents A, C, E, F, H, J, K, L, M, N, P and Regulation 7 are all currently being evaluated by Central Government with a view  to change between now and 2013.   In 2010 Parts F, G, J and L are scheduled for changes to the regulations and approved document guidance.

We are currently providing training seminars to our clients on a range of subjects including Fire Safety, BS9999, Approved Document G and Approved Document L.  If you would like to benefit from one of our seminars please contact our Gloucester Office and ask for Paul Hughes.
