I am planning a loft conversion in the next year or two and will get plans drawn up nearer the date but I am doing some homework of my own to check if the idea if feasible/ affordable. I have looked at the building regulations and have a couple of questions
- in the old regs there was a table of joist sizes for various spans, in the new regs this is now a trada publication (you have to buy separately) does any one know the figures have changed or would I just be paying 17-50 for tables I already have.
- Smoke alarms have to be mains powered and linked, my house will end up 3 storeys high so can I use t&e or have to use pyro.
Thanks
Andy
