Corrections to Approved Document B

CIAT has been advised that the potential error in Approved Document B volume 1 2019 edition has been corrected.

In September, the Institute was advised that due to a potential error in the Approved Document B volume 1 2019 edition which details the provision of dampers fitted to the vents of smoke shafts, both the Approved Document B (Fire Safety) Volume 1 – Dwellings, 2019 Edition and Approved Document B (Fire Safety) Volume 2 – Buildings Other Than Dwellings, 2019 Edition had been temporarily removed from sale and from the gov.uk website.

We have since been advised that these documents have been corrected accordingly and have been reinstated onto the gov.uk website.  Further information can be found on the link below:
