Great Things in Small Packages
Acknowledging that Part L has subsequently been revised and this
updated 2nd edition was published prior to April 2002 - a retrospective users review may still be helpful.

The very concept of extracting detail from all AD's and presenting it specifically for a building type results in an enormous increase in productivity for the user, especially the less-experienced or student reader.

As a work of reference, it is presented in the most useful way possible i.e. the traditional sequence of construction/design.

The next edition incorporating recent revisions is eagerly awaited. Hopefully, sooner rather than later.

An invaluable reference
The ability to research any aspect of current Building Regulations pertaining specifically to residences is invaluable. It must be said that compared to researching more comprehensive guides, the time saved alone if converted into cost, recovers the book price within the first months usage.
