For compliance with the Building Standards (Scotland) Regulations 1990, as amended by the Building Standards (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 1993, the Building Standards (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 1994, the Building Standards (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 1996, the Building (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 1997, and the Building Standards and Procedure Amendment (Scotland) Regulations 1999.
This publication presents the Technical Standards which are the ‘relevant standards’ for compliance with the Building Standards (Scotland) Regulations 1990, as amended. The Technical Standards have full Statutory force by virtue of Regulation 9.
Although presented in separate Parts to relate to particular regulations, the Technical Standards and the Regulations must be considered and applied as a whole; more than one standard or regulation may bear on a particular building element or design decision. Where this is relevant the most onerous standard applies [see for example Regulation 6 (4)or Regulation 7 (3)].
