Regulation 11 Structure

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

(1)

Every building shall be so constructed that the combined loads to which the building may be subject are sustained and transmitted to the ground without impairing the stability of the building.

(2)

Every building of five or more storeys shall be so constructed that in the event of a failure of any part of the structure the extent of any resultant collapse will not be disproportionate to the cause of the failure.
