6.2.1 Compliance

External timber framed walls shall comply with the Technical Requirements.

External timber framed walls that comply with the guidance in this chapter will generally be acceptable. For guidance on internal walls and floors within timber frame buildings, see Chapters 6.3 and 6.4.

Where the components of the timber frame cannot be inspected on site (eg closed panels or fully fitted out volumetric units) the system should be subject to review by NHBC. Please refer to the NHBC Accepts website at www.nhbc.co.uk/builders/products-and-services/techzone/accepts.
