Good practice guidance for refurbishing occupied buildings has been written for those involved in the refurbishment of buildings that are still occupied, including designers, clients, occupants and contractors.
The guide aims to set out a number of principles to help ensure an efficient refurbishment that causes minimum disruption to business continuity. It is based on the experience of refurbishing a range of occupied buildings and includes case studies and frequently asked questions.
A number of areas are covered by the guide including health and safety considerations and the effective separation of the building work from occupants. Project planning, scheduling, communication and security issues are also covered.
Good practice guidance for refurbishing occupied buildings (ISBN 0 86017 621 5) is published by CIRIA and costs £20 (members) and £40 (non-members).
