Proposed Building Regulations for the Conservation of Fuel and Power

Abstract

The Department of the Environment Stage II proposals for revision of Building Regulations pursue the aim outlined in the Government White Paper ‘Lifting the Burden’; that the Regulations should be reduced to the minimum required to secure their essential function; in this case to set basic standards of cost‐effective energy efficiency, coupled with a need for simplification and greater flexibility. The present paper briefly describes the Stage II proposals and their technical background developed by the Building Research Establishment.
