The new Building Regulations 2018 are set to come into effect on 2 June 2018. The new regulations will reflect the changing nature of the industry, equipment and methodology to deliver a better, more effective building industry that benefits both practitioners and consumers. The Building Regulations 2018 will replace the Building Regulations 2006 and the Building Interim Regulations 2017.
The new Regulations have been numbers from 1 to 286, whereas the previous principle Regulations (the Building Interim Regulations 2017) are numbered 101-2101.
