Why
the need for a protective gas barrier combined with
damp proof membrane?
The
Building Regulations (Approved Document C) require that
proper precautions be taken to prevent danger to health
and safety when building on contaminated land. However,
a number of significant political and economic factors
have led to the need for commercial and residential
developments to be located on sites with the potential
for gas contamination:
| • |
Political
pressure requiring the reclamation and rehabilitation
of former industrial sites, including former gas
works. |
|
|
| • |
An
acute shortage of available inner city and urban
sites. |
| |
|
| • |
Planning
consent difficulties in rural locations. |
