Purpose of Building Regulations
Building Regulations are made to secure health, safety, welfare and convenience of people and to conserve fuel and power. Standards and technical approvals are relevant guidance insofar as they relate to these purposes.
The Building Regulations are made for specific purposes, primarily securing the health, safety, welfare and convenience of people and for the conservation of fuel and power. Standards and technical approvals are relevant guidance to the extent that they relate to these purposes. However, they may also address other aspects of performance such as serviceability, or aspects which although they relate to health and safety are not covered by the Building Regulations.
