B Technical Guidance Document Fire Safety
The Technical Documents, commonly known as
TGD's give guidance on how to construct a building so that it complies
with the Regulations. Where works are carried out in accordance with
the TGDs, this will indicate compliance with the Regulations. The
adoption of an approach different to the TGD's is not prohibited,
provided that the approach meets the requirements of the Regulations.
