Regulation B3 Suitability of certain materials

Northern Ireland Not yet in force

Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

(1)

In determining whether a material is of a suitable nature and quality for use as the weather-resisting part of an external wall or roof no account shall be taken of that material being either—

(a)

painted; or

(b)

coated, surfaced or rendered with any other material which, when so used, does not in itself constitute effective resistance against weather.

(2)

Any material which depends on periodic maintenance, replacement or renewal for its suitability shall be readily accessible or positioned so that such maintenance, replacement or renewal is practicable.
