I have a few inspections to do over the coming months in Scotland, shopfitting sites, both strip out and fit out.

Are there any differences in the Regs/requirements that I should look out for?

Thanks Ron, I think the fire risk assessment may be different - would like some views please?

That's all well and good Les, but if Chris' work is construction / refurb work then he'll have limited responsibility with a FRA. It would be up to the duty holder or client to update the FRA dependent upon the information Chris supplies to him/her.

Apart from the lack of a requirement to produce site waste management plans, there aren't any other differences in construction legislation that I'm aware of Chris.

Does that help?

(Alex) Let's not understate the key importance of maintaining fire safety arrangements in strip out/refurb of an existing premises. Where the premises have been given over to the Principal Contractor he will have very specific and often quite dynamic issues to deal with in maintaining the safety of the workforce and the integrity of the property with respect to fire risks.
I often find that insufficient attention is paid to maintaining adequate fire safety measures, with scant detail in the Construction Phase Plan, for this type of Project - particularly where fire detection and alarm circuitry replacement or modification is part of the Project.
The recent £10M damage to the Cutty Sark during the restoration Project is a case in point?
