Where can I get a copy of the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004 and the Technical Handbooks?
The Building Regulations and Technical Handbooks are available from most good bookshops. They may be available for inspection in main libraries. You may view or download the Building Regulations and Technical Handbooks at the Scottish Government website’s Building Standards section free of charge. For larger projects you will probably use an architect or other suitably qualified person who will be conversant with the guidance in the Handbooks. For a small project the verifier will be able to explain what impact the mandatory standards are likely to have on your building proposal and you may not need to obtain a copy.
