Asbestos for Surveyors Summary

Asbestos for Surveyors by Bill Sanderson

Now on the essential reading list for all NIACS candidates, studying for the Royal Society for the Protection of Health - Level 3 Certificate in Asbestos Inspection Procedures. Asbestos for Surveyors provides practical assistance to surveyors, with technical information on asbestos and its properties and applications in building materials. It discusses some of the reasons why the Health and Safety Executive are anxious to see asbestos materials in buildings managed properly and covers the current legislation on asbestos. It reviews aspects of the training for surveyors and accreditation by UKAS which will almost certainly become a requirement when current regulations are revised. It has a review of current legislation on asbestos, surveying and sampling techniques. It supplements technical guidance from the HSE such as MDHS 100 and HSG 227.
