  4. Robust details • Details of the registration with and a list of the robust details from robust details limited needs to be provided prior to the commencement of the works • During the construction process the responsible person should show the building control inspector that the check list from the manual is being completed for the relevant details.

  5. Fire detection and alarm systems • The design, installation and commissioning of a system needs show that the requirements of BS 5839 have been met. • Design of the system Indicated in the specification and marked on the plan • Inspection of the work Site investigation • Testing and commissioning Certified by a competent person • A certificate containing the information listed in appendix G (part 1)
