Description

Changes to the Building Regulations Approved Document B - fire safety came into force on 6 April 2007 and affect building work in England and Wales, such as the erection, extension or material alteration of a building, and how fire safety is designed into a building.

They also include amendments to the guidance on domestic loft conversions, the use of door-closing devices in dwellings and the provision of sprinklers in tall blocks of flats.

The Approved Document has been split into two volumes, Volume 1 deals with dwellinghouses and Volume 2 deals with buildings other than dwellinghouses.

Important Announcement

References in the Approved Documents to Building Regulations 2000 (S.I. 2000/2531) are now out of date because the Regulations have been consolidated into a new instrument: Building Regulations 2010.  The Explanatory Memorandum published with this new instrument advises that the Regulations have been renumbered. It contains a table showing how the old numbering corresponds to the new numbering. A copy of the Amendment document can be downloaded here.

Corrigenda for Approved Document B:

A list of corrections and changes (corrigenda) to Approved Document Part B (2006 edition) was published in March 2010. See Extracts and Additional Materials below to download your free copy.
