NHBC Standards Plus provides the house building industry with improved and faster access to NHBC’s Technical Standards as well as a broad range of supplementary technical information.
Housebuilders will be able to access information including Technical Extra guidance publications, training information and informative videos as well as the latest revisions to the Standards, such as Chapter 7.2 Pitched Roofs and Chapters 6.7 'Doors, windows and glazing'.
Commenting on the launch of the new service Mark Jones, NHBC’s Group Head of House Building Standards, said:
“Over recent years advances in technology have changed the way in which construction projects are managed including the manner in which information is communicated.
“Recent feedback from the house building industry across the UK has demonstrated a need for a single point of access to a wide selection of relevant, up to date technical information. With this in mind, we are confident that NHBC Standards Plus will meet this requirement and provide access to an array of relevant and up-to-date guidance, information and data relating to house building standards.”
The 2013 edition of the NHBC Standards came into effect at the start of the year for every NHBC registered home whose foundations were begun on or after January 1st.
