Compliance is mandatory
From 1 October, FENSA inspections will apply the revised Building Regulations
From 1 October, FENSA inspections will apply the revised Building Regulations and to remain registered with the organisation, it is mandatory to be able to self certify compliance.
As a result, FENSA is urging companies to attend its Building Regulations and WER seminars, presented by Giles Willson, director of technical affairs at the Glass and Glazing Federation (GGF) and the British Fenestration Rating Council (BFRC).
At the seminars, companies will find out how the amendments will affect them and receive advice on options for using the best route towards achieving compliance. The seminar costs £25 per person and lasts for two hours.
The remaining seminar days in August and September are as follows:
Tue 3 Aug, River Centre, Kent
Wed 4 Aug, Blenheim Palace, Oxford
