Building Regulations L1A New Dwellings

This one-day Part L training event is designed to bring delegates up-to-date with the 2006 changes to the existing Approved Document to Part L of the Building Regulations, and their effects on the domestic building sector.

Why you should attend

This course will comprehensively cover the implications of the Part L update on the domestic building sector. By attending this course you will gain an in-depth understanding of the changes, helping you reduce the risk to your business. Part L of the new Building Regulations will help with the implementation into UK law of the European Performance of Buildings Directive, as well as playing an important role with the reduction of carbon emissions of dwellings to help meet Kyoto targets.

  • The background to the new requirements
  • The requirements for new domestic buildings (ADL1A)
  • The requirements for existing domestic buildings (ADL1B)
