520 _aAsbestos is one of most highly regulated topics in the United Kingdom, and although its importation and use is now prohibited, it is still found in the majority of buildings. This study pack aims to remove the mystique and some of the myths, surrounding this "taboo" material and its historic use in buildings. It is intended for those carrying out or commissioning asbestos-related services in connection with all aspects of the property industry. Relevant legislation is summarised and you will find background information on the different forms and types of asbestos-containing materials commonly found in buildings as well as advice on evaluating and controlling the risks that they may present. All aspects of asbestos are addressed, including inspection & sampling; registers and asbestos management plans; its removal, treatment and disposal and the selection of asbestos inspectors, analysts and contractors.
